Victor,

I'm a QP2 subscriber and have been quite happy with the service. If you dig
around, you'll find that some people have written QP2 scans for locating
CANSLIM compatible stocks. I have been a bit disappointed with the scans,
but that's not a QP2 shortcoming only a reflection of the fact that a
programmer has not yet refined a scan to my liking at least. In the end, I
doubt any computerized scan will find only and all CANSLIM candidates and I
still scan many charts by eye (although far less diligently in this lousy
market). All in all, QP2 is reasonably priced and an excellent source for
finding high RS and EPS stocks. Be aware however that both their RS and EPS
rankings are different from IBD's so I use both sources....
