HighCharts yAxis too much space around big numbers

My current chart



Just started using HighCharts. I'm charting a stock price that fluctautes around $1,598 and $1,601 that fluctuates over the course of a day. The changes are all obviously small - but the price is changing - it should not be a straight line. HighCharts seems to just zoom too far out. I've added the startOnTick: false etc. with no luck so far. Is there anything obvious I might be missing?



Options below:



const options = {
chart: {
height: '150px',
backgroundColor: theme.colors.white02
margin: 0,
spacing: [0, 0, 0, 0]
},
xAxis: {
title: {
text: null
},
labels: {
enabled: false
},
startOnTick: false,
endOnTick: false,
type: 'datetime',
gridLineWidth: 1,
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: null
},
labels: {
enabled: false
},
startOnTick: false,
minPadding: 10,
maxPadding: 0
},
title: {
text: null
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
series: [
{
type: 'areaspline',
data: data[0].data,
}
]
};

          If you set the min option for the y-Axis to a number just below your minimum - in your case perhaps 1595, and have startOnTick to false as you've mentioned, that will essentially 'zoom in' on the graph right away for your desired range given the inputs are within that range.

            Thank you for the answer! If I set the min manually, it does work - I was hoping that I wouldn't need to specify that, but thats trivial so its what I'll do - thanks!!

          Try to set min value of yAxis.



          const options = {
          chart: {
          height: '150px',
          backgroundColor: theme.colors.white02
          margin: 0,
          spacing: [0, 0, 0, 0]
          },
          xAxis: {
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          labels: {
          enabled: false
          },
          startOnTick: false,
          endOnTick: false,
          type: 'datetime',
          gridLineWidth: 1,
          },
          yAxis: {
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          labels: {
          enabled: false
          },
          startOnTick: false,
          minPadding: 10,
          maxPadding: 0,
          min: 1550
          },
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          legend: {
          enabled: false
          },
          series: [
          {
          type: 'areaspline',
          data: data[0].data,
          }
          ]
          };


          options.yAxis.min=1550;



          or you can assign minimal value from response array.

          series: [

          data: data[0].data,
          }
          ]
          };


          options.yAxis.min=1550;



          or you can assign minimal value from response array.

          Try to set min value of yAxis.



          const options = {
          chart: {
          height: '150px',
          backgroundColor: theme.colors.white02
          margin: 0,
          spacing: [0, 0, 0, 0]
          },
          xAxis: {
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          labels: {
          enabled: false
          },
          startOnTick: false,
          endOnTick: false,
          type: 'datetime',
          gridLineWidth: 1,
          },
          yAxis: {
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          labels: {
          enabled: false
          },
          startOnTick: false,
          minPadding: 10,
          maxPadding: 0,
          min: 1550
          },
          title: {
          text: null
          },
          legend: {
          enabled: false
          },
          series: [
          {
          type: 'areaspline',
          data: data[0].data,
          }
          ]
          };


          options.yAxis.min=1550;



          or you can assign minimal value from response array.
