Stock trading investments?


Where can I easily learn how to trade? Everything from using a small investment, of about $2,500 just to get started, and how much taxes you have to pay when you earn, what the broker fees are, and how to tell what company to invest in for a quick earn, rather than keeping it in a potential gain for many years to come? Any advice..PLEEEAAAASSSEE help me!

Learning how to trade stocks is a lifelong business. It's very good that you desire to start learning now. Here's a few suggestions to get started...

Use a reputable broker that has the tools available for your investment research...

MSN is a good research tool...

Investors Business Daily is super...

Don't forget your public library. Browse the investment books there. Stock research and investment is a lifelong process. You cannot get too much knowledge.

Don't forget the crazy man, Jim Cramer. Good source for ideas, but don't buy the stocks he recommends right away. They usually pop up as soon as he mentions them, and then retrace.

Probably the best free place on the web is Yahoo's own Investment Education Center http://finance.yahoo.com/education I have used it when teaching students about the market in the past by having them go to it to answer questions. I think you should find all of your questions answered there.

Good Luck!!!

Besides the advice given already, another good exercise is to pretend to have $50,000 to invest in stocks. Pick your fav companies and track their stock prices for several weeks and see if you are up or down from your initial investment. I did this for a finance class I took, it is very interesting. You can use Yahoo finance to track your stocks.
