1. A method for displaying a data series, comprising:
- receiving, using a computer device, market data from an electronic exchange, the market data including a data series for a tradeable object being traded at the electronic exchange, where the data series is dynamically updated according to market updates from the electronic exchange;
dynamically displaying, via an electronic display of the computing device, the market data relative to a time axis and a chart axis of a price chart, the time axis having a recent data region and an older data region, where a linear time scale for the recent data region and a linear time scale for the older data region form a continuous non-linear time scale; and
in response to receiving a new market update in the market data,displaying, via the electronic display of the computing device, the new market update in the recent data region having a first linear scale, andautomatically shifting, via the electronic display of the computing device, an oldest market update previously displayed in the recent data region to the older data region.

Abstract
A system and method are provided for displaying a data series. In one embodiment, a graphical interface is provided including at least one axis that is divided into a plurality of axis regions. Preferably, each axis region uses a different linear scale, and the plurality of axis regions forms a continuous non-linear scale. The graphical interface also displays the data series in relation to the plurality of axis regions, and the data series is plotted in relation to each axis region based on a scale resolution corresponding to each respective axis region.
