How it works

_ƝṠÞ+SƊƑ  Main link. Argument: n (integer)

_Ɲ        Take the differences of neighboring digits.
          This maps n = abcd to [a-b, b-c, c-d].
       Ƒ  Fixed; apply the link to the left and return 1 if the result is equal to
          its argument, 0 if not.
      Ɗ       Drei; combine the three links to the left into a monadic chain.
  ṠÞ              Sort the differences by their signs (negative, zero, positive).
     S            Take the sum of the differences, yielding 0 if and only if the
                  first digit is equal to the last.
    +             Add the sum to each difference.
