The different scalings use different Y legend limits and proportions, so keep
that in mind when viewing each setting.

Although you should know how to read and use each type of chart, I'd suggest
using only/mainly log graphs in your everyday usage, unless you have a good
reason not to do so. Log charts have some useful differences, IMHO, such as
allowing you to visually estimate price changes more easily, since the same
vertical distance always equals the same percentage of change, anywhere on the
chart.
