The trick used on old macs was pretty good: instead of a solid triangle (which can mean "pyramid" or "arrow"), use increasingly narrow or increasingly wide layers:
This means "sorted small to large":
_
___
_____
_______
This means "sorted large to small":
_______
_____
___
_
Alternatively, we can just write which comparison operator we used: ≤ or ≥. When the sorting indicator is ≤, each element in the list is ≤ to the next one, and conversely with ≥.
Or we can use a horizontal symbol with increasing or decreasing bars: ▂▅▉ means increasing, ▉▅▂ means decreasing.
Apologies for the ASCII art.
Clément.
