Selective Compounder
by Ordertune · part of Advanced
- Swing momentum, long only
- Risk medium
Selective Compounder is a short-term momentum model that stays selective by design. It only becomes active once the market has already priced in elevated risk. When sentiment turns fearful, it buys strong stocks whose uptrends are still intact and aims to capture the recovery that follows, usually over about two weeks.

Daily return series 13 Jan 2000 to 3 Nov 2026, supplied by the provider. Data before 2 Sep 2026 is a backtest: simulated results are a hypothesis, not a promise. Past performance does not predict future returns. Your own results depend on your position sizes, fills and costs.
