Where in your code to you convert slope to percent?
Slope is: m=ΔPrice÷ΔTime.
Percent would be: 100 × m ÷ Price.

I messed up, sorry.
You are right, i there is no part, where the decimal number is converted to percent.
i didnt meant percent, but the angle in degree.
Still any ideas ?

There is no angle from 2 anchor points. An angle requires distance divided by distance; a unit-less number. A chart has price and time. What is the angle of going 30 miles in 45 minutes? Meaningless!

You can get the slope from a trendline: m=ΔPrice÷ΔTime. Changing the price scale, bar width, or window size, changes the apparent angle, the slope is constant. Angle is meaningless.
-
You can create an angled line using one point and setting the angle (Object Properties - Objects Constants - Standard Constants, Enumerations and Structures - MQL4 Reference.) The line is drawn that angle in pixels. Changing the axes scales does NOT change the angle (and thus is meaningless.)
-
If you insist, take the two price/time coordinates, convert them to pixel coordinates and then to apparent angle with arctan.

Hey,
im trying to get the Slope of an iMA in percent.
I have read multiple posts here but non of them seem to work or im missing out on something (probably last option)
I think it doesnt have to do with my code structure, but my math.
Heres my code in the OnTick function:
Thanks in advance.
I believe mathematically you cannot have percentage in slope unless you know what your 100% is, or you want to check the increase or decrease of slope. This means, you must have a reference slope. But now the slope of iMA is the the difference between two values of the same iMA, ie. ima50[n1] and ima50[n2]. There in no need to divide iMA by count as slope is a price already divided by time which is int ma_period. If you want a slope of 6 bars then multiply your current int ma_period by 6.
This is just my understanding.
