The SSL6 Strategy

A rules-based, fully automated long/short momentum system designed for experienced investors exploring what's possible inside a Roth IRA.

The signal

A single technical signal; the SSL2 channel, a pair of Hull Moving Averages; running on a 5-minute chart. When the channel flips, a trade fires at bar close. No discretion.

The instrument

SOXL, a 3× leveraged ETF tracking the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index. The system takes short positions via SOXS in confirmed downtrends.

The account

Everything runs inside a Roth IRA; tax-free growth, no wash-sale concerns, and tax-free qualified distributions after age 59½.

The automation

TradingView generates the signal, TradersPost receives the alert and places the trade with your broker. About 15–30 minutes a day to monitor.

What the model says is possible

Approximate ranges based on the historical backtest. Actual results depend heavily on market conditions.

Year 1–2$15,000 – $60,000

Year 3–4$60,000 – $400,000

Year 5$400,000 – $1,000,000

Year 8$3,000,000 – $5,000,000

Year 10$10,000,000 – $20,000,000

Risk is real

The backtest covers four years. SOXL is 3× leveraged and can lose 80–90% in a sustained semiconductor bear market. Strategies can stop working. This is educational content, not investment advice; consult a qualified financial advisor before investing.
