How to program a slope line breakout in EasyLanguage?

Is there a way to draw slope lines automatically similar how people do it manually?

Alright I will give this one away. I don't use this anymore. Lookback length is the period you want to look back for the trendline, leftstrength, rightstrength define the bars left and bars right that you want to define a Higher or lower high or higher/lower low. DownLineCurrentPrice and UpLineCurrentPrice are the current bars trendline values if you want to check for price crossing. Excuse the hack job as I have not cleaned this code up or looked at it in a few years.

If you want to run this on daily bars or not have the trendline reset after the day close, remove the reset code if date <> date[1] code. Remove the whole if statement until the next end;

 
Code
inputs:  
	LeftStrength( 10 ) ,  
	RightStrength( 10 ), 
	LookBackLength( 100 );
 
variable:  
	ID(-1), 
	Offset( 0 ) , 
	HighValue1(0),
	HighValue2(0),
	LowValue1(0),
	LowValue2(0),
	
	DownStartPrice(0),
	DownStartBar(0),
	DownSecondPrice(0),
	DownTrendConfirmBar(0),
	DownTrendConfirm(0),
	DownSecondStartBar(0),
	DownLineCurrentPrice(0),
	
	UpStartPrice(0),
	UpStartBar(0),
	UpSecondPrice(0),
	UpTrendConfirmBar(0),
	UpTrendConfirm(0),
	UpSecondStartBar(0),
	UpLineCurrentPrice(0);

if Date <> Date[1] then begin
	HighValue1 = 0;
	HighValue2 = 0;
	LowValue1 = 0;
	LowValue2 = 0;
	
	DownStartPrice = 0;
	DownStartBar = 0;
	DownSecondPrice = 0;
	DownTrendConfirmBar = 0;
	DownTrendConfirm = 0;
	DownSecondStartBar = 0;
	DownLineCurrentPrice = 0;
	
	UpStartPrice = 0;
	UpStartBar = 0;

	UpTrendConfirm = 0;
	UpSecondStartBar = 0;
	UpLineCurrentPrice = 0;
	end;

 
Offset = .15 * Average( Range, 5 ) ; 
 
if PivotHighVSBar( 1, High, LeftStrength, RightStrength, RightStrength + 1 ) <> -1 then 
begin 
	HighValue1 = PivotHighVS(1, High, Leftstrength, RightStrength, LookBackLength );  
	HighValue2 = PivotHighVS(2, High, Leftstrength, RightStrength, LookBackLength );  
 
	if HighValue2 <> -1 and ( ( HighValue1 >= HighValue2 - Offset ) and ( HighValue1 <= HighValue2 + Offset ) ) then  
	begin 
		//ID = Text_New(Date[RightStrength], Time[RightStrength], High[RightStrength] + Offset, "DT");

	begin
