Help
I think my older sister discovered i am trans, and will most likely tell my transphobic parents. Is there anything i can do to avoid my parents knowing?

You could joke it out with them in advance.. "sis has gone crazy shes obsessed with this idea im trans.. i think she's just bored and wants me to be more interesting or something so she can tell her friends"

Having a frank discussion with your sister seems to be your only option at the moment. Depending on your relationship with her, and your ability to responsibly discuss your situation, will have a lot toward determining whether she's going to be an ally or the opening part of your worst nightmare.
But I am curious, and this does have a lot to do with how you approach this, whether or not you saying you are trans reflects your deep-seated and intense desire to transition or is it a lesser issue that is only mildly earth-shattering (such as you being a crossdresser).
Either way this is probably not the time to BS your sister and try to get her to "move along dash there's nothing here to see".
