Linear chart

The standard Chart type, on which a given distance always represents the same absolute change in price (unlike on a Logarithmic chart, where a given distance always represents the same percentage change in price). In other words, the distance from 1 to 10 is the same as the distance from 10 to 100 on a Logarithmic chart, but the latter distance is ten times greater on a Linear chart.
