KST: Know Sure Thing
A momentum oscillator that combines four rates of change over different periods, weighted towards the longer ones.
Идея простыми словами
Short, medium and long momentum each tell part of the story. KST adds four smoothed rates of change so that signals happen only when they broadly agree.
Как считается
Smooth ROC(10), ROC(15), ROC(20) and ROC(30) with SMAs of 10, 10, 10 and 15 candles, weight them 1, 2, 3 and 4 and add them up. Signal = SMA(9) of KST.
KST = 1·SMA(ROC10,10) + 2·SMA(ROC15,10) + 3·SMA(ROC20,10) + 4·SMA(ROC30,15)
Signal = SMA(KST, 9)Как использовать
- KST crossing its signal line.
- Zero line as the dividing line between rising and falling markets.
Выводы
- Turns of KST far from zero are more significant.
Пример
GER40 weekly: KST crosses above its signal line below zero after a correction, a classic early buy signal.

На что обратить внимание
- Slow by design; on short timeframes it lags a lot.
