understand how stock market works, what drive stock prices, why they are listed and who are the market player. you'll get some picture on how the game is going.

then, understand yourself. set your financial goal, unleashed your risk tolerance and discover your preference (stock trading vs stock investing). You'll be more focus after doing this. trust me.

then, start implement your plan. start small and focus on gaining experience first. don't be too greedy yet. learn to control your emotion. your previous plan will be useless if you take emotion along the way.

Congratulations on saving your money and trying to invest it!

In the United States, many US discount online brokerages, such as E*trade (www.etrade.com) require you to be 18 years or older.

So what you can do is ask your parents to open an account for you. One example is an Educational Custodial account. Your parents will control the account until you turn 18 or 21. Read the other requirements and benefits on the website:

There is also a Coverdell Account (formerly known as Education IRA), or an IRA for Minors (for your retirement!)

In the meantime, I recommend that you get your parents involved. Have them learn more about Investing. Both you and your parents should start by reading Investing for Dummies by Eric Tyson.

Once they open the account, you and your parents can decide how to invest.

The first step is get some basic knowlage of the market you can do that by reading books, I recomend the idiots guide for savi investments, you can learn alot bout stock from web sites like http://www.morningstar.com/ can reaserch stocks this way and evaluate how they have perform in the past anotherthing you can do to get your self familiar with stocks set up your protfoliom on My Yahoo you can track the stock of your choice and get a feel for the market.Watch the news a listen to what the news analyst have to say about the market.once you have the know then you need the money to invest and remeber that every time you sale or buy stocks is taxable event ;)

There is a show on CNBC called Mad Money with some wacky guy. Most of the stocks he talks about on the show do really, really, really well. I would watch him, and if you can stand him, watch him all the time. (You will understand what I'm trying to say when you watch him.) Also you can have companies invest for you, such as etrade or Fidelity. Google stock trading companies and compare...make sure you read the fine print before you enroll in a company, there are lots of fees and gimmicks they will charge you. Find the best one for you and start off small. Invest in things you use on a daily basis. I have stock in things like Proctor & Gamble, Emerson Elec, American Standard, Johnson & Johnson...you should play it safe and only invest in risky stocks occasionally. You are smart for investing for a better future...way to go!

First, read the book by Dave Ramsey, "Financial Peace". Then, read his second book, which addresses the stock market and how to go about investing called "More Than Enough". Dave Ramsey is a genius. He won't lead you astray. Avoid jumping ahead to the second book. Get your foundation first.

borrow a few books from the library...would rec commend any book by suze orman she has some aimed at younger people without assuming all of them are dumb...also I would listen to the clark howard show on the radio, man has some EXCELLENT tips and a web site you might find useful

Investing in "individual" stocks takes a lot of knowledge and practice; so I would not suggest doing this until you understand completely how the stock markets work.

Vanguard.com is ideal for long term investors who want to learn about mutual funds, index funds, and exchange-traded-funds (ETFs). Trading funds is less risky than trying to trade "individual" stocks.

Unless you plan on spending everyday of your life looking at stock charts trying to determine the best time to get in and out of "individual" stocks, I would look into some sort of fund.

Also be very careful about asking for stock tips online. Most are probably worthless or contain unethical motives. Do not fall for any Pump-and-Dump scams.

As far as books go, I actually started out with the Investing for Dummies books, and they definitely pushed me in the right direction. To many other books have their own agendas in my opinion.

The websites below all contain plenty of FREE information to get you started in the right direction.

Also understand that when you move from paper trading to real trading your emotions may cause you to do stupid things when real money is involved. You will never make the right picks 100% of the time; so you have to know when to cut your losses and simply move on. So make sure you learn how to use stop-loss orders and trailing stops.
