TemplateData for Steady
This is one of a series of templates to display an increase or decrease arrow icon. 
((Increase)) = ((IncreasePositive)) = ((Up)) = ((Gain)) = ((Profit)) is a green up arrow. 
((Decrease)) = ((DecreaseNegative)) = ((Down)) = ((Loss)) is a red down arrow. ((Steady)) = ((Nochange)) = ((Same)) is a flat line for no change. Where the quantity involved should be minimized (e.g. road accidents), use 
((IncreaseNegative)) and 
((DecreasePositive)) instead, which flip the colors. Where the quantity involved is neither color, use 
((IncreaseNeutral)) and 
((DecreaseNeutral)).
To automatically display the appropriate symbol along with a value, use ((Fluctuation formatter)).
