Thanks Cheese. I see what you mean. It may be that I have a different smoothing on this line:
set{KST_Sig,cma(KST_S10c,20)}
I was playing with different smoothing periods to try to make it less jagged.
Thanks again.

Thanks, snappy.
I do miss Quilln, such a gentleman.

@snappyfrog,
I was looking at KST on a couple of Interactive Broker charts on another forum, and your filter version seems to match their version of KST exactly.

Interestingly the one at Stockcharts.com uses several sets of numbers: KST (10,15,20,30,10,10,10,15,9)
Here's some code for the Mag 7 & Spy; all indicators have blue & red lines; buy signals occur when all of the blue lines cross above the red lines...
...watch Nvda --- it may have hit bottom.

By the time all of the lines cross, the moves are just about over it appears.

1. The following is from StockCharts' Chart School on KST, explaining how they use that number sequence:
RCMA1 = 10-Period SMA of 10-Period Rate-of-Change
RCMA2 = 10-Period SMA of 15-Period Rate-of-Change
RCMA3 = 10-Period SMA of 20-Period Rate-of-Change
RCMA4 = 15-Period SMA of 30-Period Rate-of-Change
KST = (RCMA1 x 1) + (RCMA2 x 2) + (RCMA3 x 3) + (RCMA4 x 4)
Signal Line = 9-period SMA of KST
The default parameters are as follows: KST(10,15,20,30,10,10,10,15,9). The first four numbers represent the rate-of-change settings, the second four represent the moving averages for these rate-of-change indicators, and the last number is the signal line moving average.
2. Their calculation and chart match SnappyFrog's calculation and chart and agree with the 1992 article where Martin Pring introduced KST for the first time.
3. However, if you look closely at the charts from the filter below you'll see that the SF version of KST seems to be a little faster signal and I believe it is because SF is using a 9EMA instead of a 9 SMA for the signal line.
4. According to the article, Pring named it "Know Sure Thing" to remind everyone to know that there is No sure thing, in technical analysis when applied to stocks.

That's true, what we can do is get rid of the slower indicators and use the CMO --- normally, it's set to 20 days, but we cut it down to 15. And also use COG(10,7)
And use the column Aroon Oscillator(15) to help us place the better stocks up at the top on the first row; the worst ones are shown down at the bottom.
By the way, I think DISNEY hit bottom here (I could be wrong though).

nibor100 I noticed that at Stockcharts the KST and the Trix(12) look similar; normally it's set to 15.
The Trix is a triple-smooth exponential moving average:
TRIX --- developed in the early 80's.
