             Maybe someone who knows MetaStock and TS can convert the below code
for TS use.

                     The following formulas are MetaStock formulas for the KST.

                    DAILY KST SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE

                    (Mov(Roc(C,10,%),10,S)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,15,%),10,S)*2) +
(Mov(Roc
                    (C,20,%),10,S)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,30,%),15,S)*4)

                    LONG-TERM MONTHLY KST SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE

                    ( (Mov(Roc(C,9,%),6,S)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,12,%),6,S)*2) +
(Mov(Roc(C
                    ,18,%),6,S)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,24,%),9,S)*4) ) / 4

                    INTERMEDIATE KST SIMPLE MOVING AVERAGE

                    (Mov(Roc(C,10,%),10,S)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,13,%),13,S)*2) +
(Mov(Roc
                    (C,15,%),15,S)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,20,%),20,S)*4)

                    INTERMEDIATE KST EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE

                    (Mov(Roc(C,10,%),10,E)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,13,%),13,E)*2) +
(Mov(Roc
                    (C,15,%),15,E)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,20,%),20,E)*4)

                    LONG-TERM KST EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE

                    (Mov(Roc(C,39,%),26,E)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,52,%),26,E)*2) +
(Mov(Roc
                    (C,78,%),26,E)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,109,%),39,E)*4)

                    SHORT-TERM KST WEEKLY EXPONENTIAL MOVING AVERAGE

                    (Mov(Roc(C,3,%),3, E)*1) + (Mov(Roc(C,4,%),4, E)*2) +
(Mov(Roc(C,6,%),6,
                    E)*3) + (Mov(Roc(C,10,%),8, E)*4)
