Well im only 14 but my dad sell stocks to people. the best thing to do is buy about 100 shares of lions gate entertainment when the stock is at about $9 a share. then before u buy other stocks look at there history of increase and decrease to determain when to buy but start small and work ur way up. |

As a 'minor' you'll need a parent or guardian (anyone over 18 that you can trust) to open a brokerage account "FBO" (or "for the benefit of") you.
You can buy with a debit from another bank account, and the way to get filthy rich without really trying is to make regular equal dollar-amount purchases in sensible growth stocks.
If you buy an ETF ("exchange-traded fund") like SPY, which tracks the S&P500 and earns 10-12% a year, you can double your money every 6-7 years.
If you invested $30 a month (a dollar a day) from age 16 to age 65 and NEVER increased that dollar a day, you'd have about $980,000 when you retire. If you invested $40 a month instead, you'd have close to $2,000,000!
Here are two on-line brokerages you might look at: |

First I commend you for even consider purchasing stock at such a young age.
You will need a parent to set up an account with you first. BUT before even buying a stock, you should learn how the markets work. Learn what triggers bulls and what triggers bears. This will help you understand the market as a whole.
Next pick out a company, start with 1 and make it something you like. Whether it be store or a product, learn about it. Find everything there is to know about the company. Use up your printer ink if you have too.
Here are some tips to know what to look for:
*Is there a parent company?
*How long have they been in business?
*Are the profitable or in debt? (print all financial)
*Has their sales increased or decreased over the past 5 years
*Can the company be found in a particular region (or regions), through out the country or internationally.
*Who are the companies competitors? How are they doing?
*What industry and sector are they in? How is it doing?
*What is the share price? EPS?
There is more, but I hope you get the idea Learn everything there is to know about a company. It does not take very long and the more you do it, the quicker it becomes. Once you have that down, you can decide to buy or not buy.
If you are nervous to be a buyer and want to test out the market, check out http://www.investopedia.com You can learn all the terms and read newsletters but best of all they have a free(!) stock market game. You can put together a virtual portfolio and buy and sell stock as if it was the real thing. I use it for fun and to help track stocks.
Good luck. |

I'm in the same situation too, but as others have said go online, now a days it pretty much all online trading. I would recommend scottrade because they have such a low minimum account balance ($500). Scottrade has really good costumer service. DO NOT USE ZECCO!!! There are other options but unless you've got a ton of bank, scottrade is probably your best bet |

Your best bet is to do everything online. You can go to any of the stock houses and purchase stock from them. You need to have your own bank account and credit card. You will probably have to fund your account by doing a direct bank transfer.
The primary problem with stock trading is you need to keep doing trades, at least once a month, in order to avoid having fees attached to your account. I lost all my stocks in one account because I "let it sit". When you "let it sit" they charge outrageous fees and sell your stock to pay those fees. If you are going to sit on a stock, then you need to have them send you the stock certificate so you keep them, and not the brokerage house - but the brokerage houses charge a ton of money to send you the stocks.
First Trade
eTrade
TradeKing
Ameritrade
Scottrade
Zecco
For the most part, you need to be 13 or older to sign up for these services, have a bank account, and transfer between $1000 and $5000 to the trading account to begin. There are exceptions and differences - they are all different. |
