Stunning. Deep, timely & easy to understand technical analysis which exceeds all my expectations
I start following both Northstar & Badcharts on social media in early 2025 and signed up for their service in June 2025. I had watched an old public video of their expectations on gold based on their technical analysis, and I was impressed how close their thesis was to the actual price action.
Since, I've consumed a majority of their materials and my portfolio has never performed better as have my confidence in my investment decisions.
I highly recommend reviewing videos from month ago on YouTube and then compare it to current market conditions. I'm confident that you'll noticed the same that I had and experience similar results to your investing.
Objective, scientific, and unbiased analysis. Very refreshing — and profitable — in an era where mainstream media and other sources have their own agendas to push.
I've been a subscriber for several years now, this is by far the most complete, objective, unbiased, accurate analysis I've ever found!
Kevin & Patrtick unbiased analysis, helps me guide my investment decisions without emotions involved.
The weekly market round up, gives me the full picture needed to succeed in my investments.
They cover all sectors, issue trade recomendations with target profits ! No emotions invoved.
You can't go wrong with NorthStar and Badcharts !
I find this to be an excellent service that truly demonstrates the power of technical analysis of price charts to position a trading/investment portfolio for major financial gains. I particularly value the use of ratio charts by the service. Finally this service is priced very reasonably compared to other services I have used in the past and is excellent value for money.
I'm new to the service having joined as a paid subscriber in the Spring of 2025. Before that, my introduction to Northstar badcharts was in listening to podcasts where Kevin, and Patrick were guests. The first, indeed most important thing for me was 'integrity'. Both for the individuals and culture of the business. That I believe is present and forms the basis for my confidence in the business, and in the principles in operates by.
The first advisor who made me money. I tried tens of membership, advisor and signals provider in the last 8 years. 90% of them was basically money losers. I gave a chance to NSBC and they heavily overdelivered my expectations. They not only provide interesting insights but the stock they pick have recorded capital gains with very low drawdown. The only limit is the time frame of the ideas (long term) but the risk management is excellent and also the quality of information. Couldn't be happier. They are worth every penny of the membership cost.
I am a member since two years, I am very happy and appreciate the work they do. Analysis are objective and unbiased. At the beginning it was difficult for me, since the charts were usually very long term, and I did not have the patience. it takes some time before you make a mind switch and think in the same way they do. But once you make the mind switch, it becomes much easier.
Usage- 6 months
Complete trading system when paired with TradingView - includes Risk management & Portfolio management tools plus individual Trading & Investment alerts. Keith & Karim do a phenomenal amount of work - it's difficult to keep on top of their prolific output.
Thoroughly recommend.
These two guys are as sincere and skilled as it gets. No front just steady and unexcitable commentary on the TA they see. They are straight arrows.
Very helpful big picture guidance tools. Not sensationalist. Good forward thinking done by these two, with carefull attention to always being evidence based (technically). Excellent visuals.
I have been a member with Kevin and Patrick for over two years now. Their technical analysis is high quality but also down to earth realistic. It fits with me very well. The membership fee is well worth it
I jumped from one "expert" analyst site to another for over ten years looking for a simple, concise evaluation
of the PM and commodities markets. Most charged a ton of money for ambiguous and worthless commentary. I also lost a ton of money relying on their recommendations. Finally discovered NSBC a couple of years ago. No B.S., straightforward and unbiased information that makes sense. They have also exposed me to potential markets for investments. Their approach using gold ratios is about as rational as it gets. Criticism of their comprehensive weekly podcasts is unwarranted. It's simple to skip charts that you don't find useful (but could be if some critics took the time). Kudos to Kevin and Patrick.
The analysis and insights Northstar and Badcharts have given me have saved me a great deal of pain in the markets, and I honestly can’t overstate how much I appreciate the clarity and discipline they bring to their work. Kevin and Patrick are exceptional at what they do—always grounded in reason and evidence, never swayed by noise, hype, or narrative.
In a space that often leans into clickbait, politics, and conspiracy, their level-headed, apolitical approach is a breath of fresh air. It’s rare, and it’s deeply valued. I’m genuinely grateful for how generously they share their knowledge and for how much confidence and peace of mind their guidance has brought me during chaotic market cycles.
I feel very confident with the information Northstar and Badcharts provide. The info is clear and helps me remove any emotional decision coming from outside headline media news. My focus is then on what the charts are doing and Northstar and Badcharts break them down and describe them very well. Really excellent work !!!
Your accurate long term view of various markets and commodities makes my decisions easier because you give the bigger picture of what to expect ahead.
Intelligent & calm technical analysts and ruthlessly honest. Can't recommend them too highly.
Kevin and Pat are incredible at what they do. Their technical analysis is beyond reproach. They disregard narratives and just focus on the data. They will keep you on the right side of the trade. Love'em!
