Martin Pring's KST Formulas
MetaStock Indicator
The KST indicator was developed by Martin J. Pring. The name KST
comes from "Know Sure Thing". The KST is constructed by summing four
smoothed rates of change. For more interpretation refer to Martin
Pring's article "Summed Rate of Change (KST)" in the September 92
issue of TASC.
The following formulas are MetaStock formulas for the KST.
