I'd prefer to have log price scales for all time scales but I haven't found it
to be a great distraction to have daily and intraday charts on linear price
scales - maybe because I got used to the earlier version of DGO which only had
daily charts with linear price scales.  Daily charts run a full year in length
and it sure would be nice to have them in log scale also.  Anywhere I can set
the price scale myself (bigcharts, quotetracker, etc.) I use log scale
exclusively.
