In the past on certain equipment I have used a black sharpie to color in the tip end of the dipstick. Not sure if this would work with the trans fluid but with clean oil it sure helps.

Scotchbrite (red or grey) the end of dip stick to knock off the shine a bit and the fluid level will be easier to see.
