SST Alpha Engine Documentation

The SST Alpha Engine is an AI-powered small-cap stock trading platform built and operated by Strong Stock Trading L.L.C. It combines real-time market scanning, six autonomous AI agents, and a self-evolving genetic genome to identify, score, and execute trades in the US equity markets.

This documentation covers how the system works at a conceptual level. Proprietary scoring formulas, genome weights, and strategy thresholds are trade secrets and are not published here.

Educational Purpose Only: SST Alpha Engine is an educational and research tool. It is not a registered investment advisor. Nothing on this platform constitutes financial advice. See the Risk Disclosure section for full details.

Trading Philosophy

SST was built on a single premise: the trading education industry is broken. Alert services charge hundreds of dollars per month for watchlists that arrive after the move. Gurus post wins and bury losses. Retail traders are left holding the bag.

The Alpha Engine takes the opposite approach:

  • No Hype: Every trade is logged — winners and losers. Full transparency is not a marketing slogan. It is the entire model.
  • No Advice: The system scores data and shows what it sees. You decide what to do with it.
  • No Launch Gate Shortcuts: The platform will not be called a success until it generates $5,000–$10,000 in real, live trading profit. Not paper trading. Not backtesting. Real money.
  • Education First: 10 courses, 95 modules, and 250 quizzes covering stocks, options, futures, forex, ETFs, and crypto — all included for members.
The No Hype Rule: SST posts proof after trades close, not before. Live picks stay behind the members area. Public proof comes out after the position is gone. This is not a pump operation.

The Genome

The genome is the brain of the Alpha Engine. It is a collection of weighted signals that score every trade candidate on a scale of 0–100. A candidate must clear a minimum score threshold before any order is even considered.

What makes the genome different from a static ruleset is that it evolves. After every completed trade, the genome analyzes what signals contributed to the outcome and adjusts their weights automatically. Signals that predicted winners get amplified. Signals that misfired get suppressed. Over thousands of trades, the genome converges on the combination of signals that actually works in current market conditions — not conditions from three years ago.

  • 91+ weighted signals covering volume, momentum, technicals, and fundamentals
  • 45,000+ backtested trades used to calibrate initial weights
  • Self-adjusting after every live trade
  • 14+ risk gates that must pass before any order is placed
  • Score threshold of 80+ required for any candidate to advance
Proprietary: The specific signal weights, scoring formula, and evolution algorithm are trade secrets of Strong Stock Trading L.L.C. and are not disclosed publicly.

The 6 Agents

The Alpha Engine is not a single bot. It is six autonomous agents that each perform a specific role and pass results to a central coordinator. A trade must survive every agent before the system acts.

🔍 Scout Agent

Scans the entire market across 12 scan types. Identifies candidates that match the genome’s current criteria before any alert service sees them.

📈 Analyst Agent

Performs deep technical analysis on each candidate. Evaluates price action, momentum, relative strength, and pattern recognition across multiple timeframes.

📚 Researcher Agent

Validates each candidate with volume analysis, float data, catalyst verification, and sector context. Confirms the story behind the numbers.

🚫 Debunker Agent

Actively tries to disprove the trade thesis. Looks for hidden risks, dilution history, earnings traps, and reasons not to take the trade.

💡 Monitor Agent

Watches every active position in real time. Manages profit targets, stop losses, time-based exits, and market condition changes.

⚙ Coordinator

Orchestrates all five agents. Manages workflow, resolves conflicts, prioritizes signals, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks during market hours.

Strategies

The Alpha Engine uses 24 stock strategies and 10 options strategies, each scored and filtered by the genome. Examples include Gap & Go, VWAP Bounce, Low-Float Momentum, ORB Breakout, and various swing setups. Options strategies include Iron Condor, Credit Spread, and Wheel.

All strategies execute limit orders only. Market orders are never used. This is a non-negotiable rule built into the order routing layer.

Account Type Note: The live trading account is a Roth IRA cash account. No shorting, no margin, no market orders. All positions are long-only with T+1 settlement.
