Selected algoritmen
Objective And Accurate
The Selected Algorithm has been developed and refined over several years. It is quite complex but based solely on closing rates; the data of the market, purged of opinions and emotions. This data is analyzed for trends and strength, and Buy and Sell signals are generated. Both the data and the process are entirely objective, and thus so are the results.

Calculation
The Selected Algorithm is designed for analyzing exchange closing rates. It consists of a detailed set of rules which, based on numerous parameters, analyze markets and individual assets for trend, strength and speed. Part of the analysis is distinguishing between incidental fluctuations in the market and the shifts indicating trends. This unified, consistent calculation across exchanges makes it possible to make an objective comparison between markets and assets, including those that might be included in an existing portfolio.
The tangible output of these calculations delivered by the system is buy and sell recommendations, and thus also a portfolio recommendation, as well as an analysis for that portfolio against the relevant index. The same output enables the mapping of bull and bear for the entire given market segment. These data and recommendations are implemented into the Assets Services we make available to our customers.
Freedom of investment
The algorithm does not need to discriminate between the exchanges on which assets are traded, but is able to measure stocks against each other and the market, regardless of where in the world they are traded. This provides a unique and groundbreaking opportunity to treat multiple exchanges as if they were one and the same market, and thus to choose the best of the best across exchanges.
The practical outcome of this is that the speed and precision of the Selected Algorithm creates the freedom to have a dynamic allocation of funds between stocks, free of risk profiles and traditional pool distributions between exchanges and international markets. The algorithm points to which stocks to buy and sell across markets, and thus makes it possible to follow the strength wherever it goes.
Security
Following the strength of the market is not a revolutionary idea - but the Selected Algorithm has a decisive advantage over a human analyst: It is never surprised. It contains no assumptions about the individual index or asset, or about companies or customers or markets. It operates exclusively with what actually happens, ignoring what we, as subjective human beings, might think or expect might happen. Thus, trends which would catch an analyst off guard are identified without delay, hesitation or inertia.
All in all, the strength is found where it is and followed where it goes - on an everyday basis, and during crises. Without any consideration for risk profiles or other limitations investors are thus enabled to identify exactly which stocks are worth owning at any given time, and to make dispositions accordingly.
That is what "We Empower Investors" means.

Origins
From Idea To Reality
Inspired by a tumultuous period in the stock markets, the original idea for what is known today as the Selected Algorithm was conceived by Torben Villumsen. The two original founders, Torben and business partner Karsten Johansen, proceeded to translate this idea into a set of reliable, repeatable calculations through a number of increasingly complex mathematical models.
Armed with this fundamental algorithm, the founds entered into a strategic partnership with the commercial specialists at theView. Together, the parties established a team of specialists to anchor the algorithm in modern software technology. Concurrently the algorithm function was further tuned and refined, not least against the closing rates from the actual exchanges, which by their nature change and develop over time.
During this period the algorithm's reliability was also verified and extensively documented, both via cash pools and weekly updated market data.
Today, the team has a fully developed algorithm in their hands, realized in a number of market-ready products!
