Has any tried NorthStar StockCompass?

Has anyone used the stock selection service, NorthStar StockCompass (www.northstarstrategic.com) ?

Their stats look impressive but it would be nice to hear some real-life experience.

Thanks,
KJ

Hi took a look attheir website. seems like they own a lot of stocks at any one time. so dont know how a hypothetical account with $10k can own all those stocks 50 stocks at $200.00= $10k. I dontthink they took slippage on purchase and commissions into there performance. I guess for $150.00 you can try and see what how it does on paper. My vies is to many stocks in the portfolio. keep us posted. heart222

Their performance page (http://northstarstrategic.com/performance.shtml) is reporting live returns and they say this includes bid/ask spread, commission, etc. Their FAQ and sample e-mail indicate they are using a 30-stock portfolio. I assume this number of stocks controls the volatility. Like you say, for $150 is looks like it's worth a try.
