Y Axis labels misleading when values are huge

[sagargurtu]

Expected behaviour

When values are huge, the y axis labels should be correctly rendered. (At least the exponent part should be consistent throughout the ticks)

Actual behaviour

The y axis labels rendered in the following fiddle are misleading since the sequence is wrong (8 to 1) and there is a direct jump from 1 to 1.2e+23

Thank you for the reporting. It looks like a bug with defaultFormatter.

Workaround
Use xAxis.labels.formatter and return this.value.
