I used 2 brokers at least since I started trading/ investing for basically the same reason as you: to spread risk around. But over the years, I found that reason or excuse to be overrated. I really like the thinkorswim platform for mobile trading and Fidelity's mobile app can't compare to Thinkorswim. Plus, I am now 65 years old and want to consolidate all my accounts and finances under one umbrella; it makes tracking my finances much easier and tax time becomes much less complicated. I believe in KISS in many ways at this stage of my life.
