I would be inclined to spring for an indicator that displays all 6 all the time.  In
my experience, things vary enough that if I only display one at a time either I'm
waaaaaay too busy chasing which one I want to be looking at, or taking care of other
business and not doing a proper job of monitoring.
It's a good investment .... Jim S.
