 Both of these stocks "split" so why do these charts look so different? 

I'm confused, what's new.

 I still have no idea what microstrategy does, but I know what Nvidia does and AI is in the news all the time.

 When did Nvidia split and by how much? Mate was 1 to 10 split.

 I don’t think splits show up on charts. This has always bothered me actually, everything adjust retroactively. So if you bought something at $1000 and it splits 10:1 it looks like you bought it at $100

As someone else said, i think something’s simply broken with the top MSTR chart in that image

 "Broken" for the bitcoin company tracks.

 I watched this same chart on the day of the split. The down is a 10x and it is the split. IDK the reason for the discrepancy though

 don't think so
nvda was at like $1k/share, so was mstr
this chart shows it dropping from the high to current price nvda doesn't show the drop, it's been adjusted....
