Thanks, this formula seems to be exactly what I was looking for in
metastock, I noticed in the image the angles were a little "strange" but it
was an external program I don't know, it just suggests me the idea.
I think the function is what I need, but I don't know how to use it, I tried
to build an indicator, but with no result.
I'd like to build an indicator to apply on a trendline and get the angle
shown near it, or a template who automatically shows all the angles of the
trendline, better both of them.
Any help on how to do it?
