Well, I'm using angles because I know what the sum of the two are supposed to come out to for the different colors of the real sidewinder. Since my initial goal is to clone that indicator, I'm using it for comparison.
Well, this code is now based on the minute-by-minute slope. Observation with this on a 1m timeframe does two things. The angle-by-trendline angles do match up. Also, the sidewinderValue numbers do NOT match up with the sidewinder, so maybe I have the wrong values for those colors.
In actuality, I do not want the slope to based on a 1m timeframe unless I'm on a 1m chart. That's why I initially had this:

In an attempt to change, I'm still doing something wrong. To take the slope for whatever the timeframe of the chart is, I thought I'd just change
Code:
double slopeLsma = (lsma25-oldLsma)/(Period()*Point);
to
Code:
double slopeLsma = (lsma25-oldLsma)/Point;
.
After doing this, however, the angle reported is much larger than that observed with the "trendline-by-angle" tool. About 3 times larger in fact. Any ideas?
