    Two nonparametric estimators of the slope of a regression line with error on both variables are considered, each of them being defined as the zero- crossing of a stochastic process whose sample paths are monotone. Their asymptotic behaviour is derived from the local asymptotic behaviour of the underlying processes. One of the estimators is a nonparametric version of \textit{A. Wald}'s estimator [Ann. Math. Stat. 11, 284-300 (1940; Zbl 0023.34402)].
