Determine if MA is sloping up or down

  Hi again,

  I use a for loop to loop through the bars and determine if a 50 MA is sloping up or down. Is there an easier way to do this? Perhaps a built in function?

  I’m sorry I just can’t find it!

  Hi @krogen

  You can make a indicator for this for example with colors.

   

  MA Slope

  ma = average[50](Close) slope = ma - ma[1] if slope > 0 then if slope > slope[1] then g = 255 r = 0 elsif slope < slope[1] then g = 200 r = 0 endif elsif slope < 0 then if slope < slope[1] then r = 255 g = 0 elsif slope > slope[1] then r = 200 g = 0 endif endif return slope coloured(r, g, 10) style(histogram, 1)

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23

  ma = average[50](Close) slope = ma - ma[1]     if slope > 0 then if slope > slope[1] then g = 255 r = 0 elsif slope < slope[1] then g = 200 r = 0 endif elsif slope < 0 then if slope < slope[1] then r = 255 g = 0 elsif slope > slope[1] then r = 200 g = 0 endif endif   return slope coloured(r, g, 10) style(histogram, 1)
