How long until able to hold a line with this movement?
Is most reserve with a 90 minute callout?
Trips begin and end in base, so your time off starts in your base. Reserve lines generally only have two days off in a row, so IMHO most commutes will only give you one night at home.
You are guaranteed 10 days off, but that does not mean you will actually get 10 days off. The company can "draft" you on a day off, or extend a trip into your days off. You will be paid for 3.75 hours for each day of the ten they take away (plus credit for any hours flown).
The only way to be sure to get your days off is to never answer your phone when the company calls.
Technically, after IOE you WILL be a lineholder, but as the FNG the line you will hold will probably be a reserve line.
The present "movement" is zero. The only way to get your seniority to increase, is to have the company buy more airplanes.
All reserve is 90 minute call out (with one rare exception that a first year guy will probably never see).
