#TweakThursday 38: Accentuating Ups and Downs

Ups and downs are the simplest indicators of trends. They are so simple that they may entice people to look further into the data. Just want to emphasize they are simple but important to data visualization.

The one and only Rody Zachovich created a great dashboard on World Economical Freedom Indicator in the MakeoverMonday Week9 project. As always, his dashboard is crisp and full of creativity.
Usually a #MakeoverMonday project is supposed to be done in a couple of hours. The dashboard is outstanding given the time frame.

I see that if we color the trend lines to accentuate the ups and downs, it may look even better. Below is the result. See if you agree that adding colors makes it look better
That's the tweak of the day. Click images to go to the interactive version.
