Stock investment terms?

Well I am interested in becoming a trader, perhaps even one day having a career in that field. I don't know much about it. But you need to start somewhere right. Does anyone know a good site to get some information and knowledge from? Like terms commonly used, the aim of the game, how to get started right from the bare beginning? i'm really wanting to get started, i need some advice please.

http://www.investopedia.com

This site will let you trade stocks just like in the real world, except it's fake money. On investopedia you'll be able to find investing terms and it will teach you how to invest, if you work at it. But this site alone can't teach you how to be a successful investor.

You should also read some books by the greats, a few off the top of my head are: The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham, One Up On Wall Street by Peter Lynch, A Random Walk Down Wall Street by Burton G. Malkiel

Go to thestreet.com. I was not fond of Jim Cramer when I first started watching him. However, after watching him and reading articles on his site, he is a very smart man.

The site is dedicated to educating investors of various levels. Don't give up if you don't understand right away. You will understand more easily as you read or watch videos.
Best of all, access is FREE (to an extent)!
