All,

If you are in a browser interface, simply do a file-send-link OR
file-send-page (sends annotated image), some other TA software has similar
features and still other apps require you to save an image locally and
attach it.  Assume this board allows but discourages the former though?  Try
imbedded URLs then.

Not a plug!  Stockcharts.com does a wonder job of all this.
