In an ordinal axis, the points are equally spaced in the chart
regardless of the actual time or x distance between them. This means
that missing data periods (e.g. nights or weekends for a stock chart)
will not take up space in the chart.
Having ordinal: false will show any gaps created by the gapSize
setting proportionate to their duration.
In stock charts the X axis is ordinal by default, unless the boost module is used and at least one of the series' data length exceeds the boostThreshold.
For an ordinal axis, minPadding and maxPadding are ignored. Use
overscroll instead.
