Another very simple Processing script. Nothing fancy just three points with circle orbits and blur on every step to ensure the fading of the "tails" but still looks nice.

 
int R = 20;  //radius
int speed = 2;  // speed
 
int t = 0;
float x;
float y;
int offx = 0;
int offy = 0;
 
void setup(){
  size(80,80);
  offx = width/2;
  offy = height/2;
  background(0);
  strokeWeight(7);
}
 
void draw(){
  filter(BLUR,1);
  stroke(#FF0000);
  x = sin(radians(t))*R+offx;
  y = cos(radians(t))*R+offy;
  point (x,y);
  stroke(#00FF00);
  x = sin(radians(t+120))*R+offx;
  y = cos(radians(t+120))*R+offy;
  point (x,y);
  stroke(#0000FF);
  x = sin(radians(t+240))*R+offx;
  y = cos(radians(t+240))*R+offy;
  point (x,y);
  t += speed;
}
