Post From: Converting a Slope Study Alert into Buy/Exit

I think the formula is not considering equal slopes.

I would use a formula like this for signals at changes in the direction of slope:

OR(AND(ID1.SG2[-2]>ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2>ID1.SG2[-1]),
AND(ID1.SG2[-2]<ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2<ID1.SG2[-1]),
AND(ID1.SG2[-2]=ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2>ID1.SG2[-1]),
AND(ID1.SG2[-2]=ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2<ID1.SG2[-1]))

This can be shortened to:
OR(AND(ID1.SG2[-2]>=ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2>ID1.SG2[-1]),
AND(ID1.SG2[-2]<=ID1.SG2[-1],ID1.SG2<ID1.SG2[-1]))

This will alert at every change in direction (up to down, down to up, equal to up, equal to down), and it should work for any bar type.
