On GBPUSD the ranges are

1 minute 1.4 to -1.5
5 minute 0.47 to -0.61
15 minute 0.20 to -0.21
30 minute 0.13 to -0.10
60 minute 0.12 to -0.15
240 minute 0.05 to -0.07
1440 minute 0.03 to -0.03

I think you did a mistake : changing TF, you change the time unit, so what you obtain is DeltaY/(DeltaX*Period()).
You should just have to compute DeltaY/DeltaX where DeltaX is in minutes, not in period; then TF doesn't matter.
