Answer 1

Set a temp var and compare it to the slider’s current value.

jsFiddle example

var last = 0;
$(".slider").slider({
    range: "min",
    value: 1,
    min: 1,
    max: 600,
    slide: function(event, ui) {
        if (ui.value > last) $("#amount").val("this is increasing");
        if (ui.value < last) $("#amount").val("this is decreasing");
        last = ui.value;
    }
});​
