    Tradestation 7.2 opinion requested

    I am using Elliot Wave as a secondary method while trading the ES.. I find it particularly useful as another indicator, another green light if u will, that lets me know that i'm probably going to be right on a certain trade. However, I have found it very difficult to use it accurately in all...

    Any opinions on clearing trades thru GHCO as opposed to Man Financial? Any other clearing firms you'd recommend/avoid? I would probably be using the PATSSYSTEMS platform....

    SuperFutures

    Has anyone ever traded through SuperFutures? Any opinions or experiences? I trade solely S&P Eminis and was wondering how they would be.. So far all I know is that they are fairly small, but the people I have talked to have been very professional and very helpful..

    worst state of mind for trading?

    for me, it's any time i get taken out of flow..sometimes it's because i become very conscious of myself, my p&l, my emotions etc... the worst is when i can't even get into flow, which usually happens when i don't get enough rest, exercise or when personal problems start intruding on my trading.
