Figures from the book "TradeStation Made Easy!"

I've had requests to see the charts from my book in color. It's a great idea.
I don't have them all, but the ones I do have will be all here, in time. I'm peddling as fast as I can.
Plus, please note that if the figure shown here does not exactly match the one in the book, it doesn't matter. It will still illustrate the principle.
