Within a multicomponent BCS-like framework we study the coexistence and competition of various CDW and SC order parameters in the presence of a strong ferromagnetic background. We find that the competition of unconventional CDW, also called orbital antiferromagnet, with SC at finite momentum (${\bf Q}$-triplet pairing) shows unique characteristics like an extreme sensitivity on the deviations from nesting. We argue that pressure in UGe$_2$ creates deviations from the nesting and report a phase diagram in qualitative agreement with the observed behavior of UGe$_2$.
