NT 8.0 Use case for Multiple Tabs, Windows and workspace

[j4trdr]

Greetings NT admins, Forum members

To trade 1 instrument, I am currently have 1 Workspace, 1 Tab and 1 window. I would like to trade 3 different instruments I am looking for examples of when to use multiple tabs in a Chart, multiple Windows within a workspace and multiple Workspaces. What are the recommendations? The benefits and drawbacks of each of these feature.

TIA

Hello j4trdr,

If you use multiple tabs in 1 chart window, you can only display 1 tab at a time. If you like to see the 3 instruments at the same time, you can create 3 separate chart windows.

You can only display 1 workspace at a time in NinjaTrader Desktop. This is the workspace with a green icon in front at Control Center-->Workspaces.

You could also add 3 instruments in 1 chart window. Once an instrument is added in the Data Series menu, please select another instrument using the Instrument field in the upper left corner of the Data Series menu. The instrument selected in ChartTrader determines to what instrument orders are submitted to.
