i guess it leaves so much empty space because of all the outliers? just cut them out, please, or at least give us an option, to. these graphs look horrible, here's an example of what i'm talking about:

oh god, i just looked at the graph for tritanium...

it just looks like a flat line across the bottom, come on, what's up with that? it doesn't give any useful information at all!

Easy to read to me as long as you dont try to learn the whole graph in one day. Luckily I had a year to learn to read them and just last week finally saw the volume part to the graph.

Try some of the other sites.

(But yes, CCP needs to filter outliers before scaling the in-game market chart.)

Not that CCP has the resources to focus on something like this, nor most Eve players would understand it, but would not a logarithmic based chart help a lot?

Small changes would be virtually linear, while the outliers would be severely constrained.
