What the hell are these charts ?

I dont think these charts are designed for a trader's eyes.

A trader got to be able to read charts with lightning speed. In just a couple of seconds a trader will be able to glance at a chart on a screen and know all the answers to the questions below:

Is this stock ( currency or futures ) in and uptrend or a downtrend?

Is the stock ( currency or futures ) at the beginning, middle, or end of the trend?

How strong is the trend?

Was there a breakout recently?

Is the chart "smooth" or "sloppy"?

Are there any chart patterns?

Where are the support and resistance areas?
