Slope of an oscillator

[ark321]

Is there a way to find the slope of an oscillator (say for example MACD fast line) - all i need to know is +ve or -ve slope.

One way is to find the value for current bar and previous bar but when you calculate on each tick this might give a false values.

Hello ark321,

Thanks for your post.

You can use the Slope() method which can be applied to any data series: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...html?slope.htm

If you only want to check once per bar in a script running with Calculate.OnEachTick, you can use the system bool of IsFirsTickOfBar: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ttickofbar.htm (See usage example in help guide).
