Why not focus on a 1 or 2 markets on one platform instead of jumping from the one to the other?

I trade already about 15 Year the same markets.
I know the moves/moods/tricks of these markets better then the moves/moods/tricks of my partner.

Hey, DD - I have only used NinjaTrader for futures day-trading since v2, when it was a front end for IB's TWS circa 2004/5, with no charts, & if you needed to ask the founder, Ray Deux, for information, you could pick up the phone and call him in Colorado! Right now, I'm only trading one market, for as little time as possible each day.

The "new" platform (coincidentally IB's TWS, so I already know the basics, but not at all the spread trading module) is not for my day-trading, but for swing trading, specifically stock option credit spreads (ie. defined risk) & I anticipate perhaps two trades per week with a hold time of up to 2 weeks. I intend to start really small and conservative, live trading just one single spread at a time, not opening another trade until the first trade is closed. IF it works, I will trade a much larger investment account with this method in 6 months or so.

Unfortunately for me, I know the moves/moods/tricks of my partner far better than these darned markets... jt.

December’s consumer price index showed that core inflation, which excludes food and energy, rose 3.2%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday. This was a notch down from the previous month and lower than the 3.3% estimated by economists surveyed by Dow Jones. Headline inflation increased 2.9% on a 12-month basis, in line with forecasts.
