Trinity KST (known sure thing) Pro

This version is the **modern, low-lag evolution** of Martin Pring’s original 1990s KST.
Key differences from the classic KST
- Original uses only simple moving averages (SMA) on the four ROCs → quite a bit of lag.
- This version lets you replace every SMA with **ALMA, HEMA, TEMA, or EMA** → dramatically reduces lag while keeping the signal smooth and reliable.
- ALMA + progressive offset (0.90–0.97) is especially powerful because longer-term ROCs react almost as fast as the short ones without getting noisy.
- Histogram, clean labels inside the oscillator pane, alerts, background tint — all the quality-of-life stuff the original never had.
How traders actually use it in >2026
1. Primary signal: KST crosses above/below the red signal line = momentum shift (bullish/bearish).
2. Zero-line cross = confirmation of trend change (especially strong on daily/weekly).
3. Divergences between price and KST = high-probability reversals (works great on BTC, SPX, NAS100).
4. Histogram turning from red to green (or vice-versa) = early warning before the actual line cross.
Best settings I and many others run live right now (no table, just the winners)
- Crypto & Nasdaq: **ALMA + aggressiveness 0.93–0.96** → fastest valid signals.
- Forex pairs & Gold: **HEMA** (zero-lag Hull) → super clean, almost no whipsaw.
- Broad stock indices (SPX, DAX, etc.): **ALMA 0.91–0.93** or **TEMA** → perfect middle ground.
- Classic conservative daily/weekly swings: leave it on **SMA** (original Pring) or ALMA 0.88–0.90.
In short: same reliable KST logic you already know, but now it reacts 6–12 bars earlier and with far fewer fakeouts — exactly what you need in today’s fast markets.
