I've been meaning to try to get into this for a while, it seems like quite a bit of fun. I'm trying not to invest more then $50. is that possible?

I would use a simulator for a while. These let you invest imaginary sums and see how you'd do.

Here is one

Definitely check out stock simulators. They let you "play" with fake money and you can experiment with different kinds of investments.

The one used in college was Stocktrade.com or something like that. There are more than a few of them, and most offer a free version.

As far as investing less than $50...you will probably have to look at mutual funds. You may need a larger initial investment ($100-$500), but then you will be able to add as much or as little as you want. If you are thinking about direct stock purchases, remember that there are transaction costs that will reduce your investment ($9.95/trade for example), so this may be more difficult than a mutual fund.

Try a free stock simulator, and good luck!

Try:

http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/TradingZoom/

Look up a few picks from 3-6 mos ago and follow them to learn when/how to buy and sell. Won't cost you a dime.

Have you tried optionsxpress? Virtual investment accounts are free (can't get cheaper than free).

I would recommend everything you can read on technical charting and candlesticks at your local library. A good start would be to read toni turners , A guide to short term trading for beginners. You should also visit the chart school at www.stockcharts.com

paper trade and monitor your trades here at www.clearstation.com

Best way to learn about trading the market is read, eat & sleep the market. What i meant is you have to dedicate some time to learning from books, traders, attend workshops/seminars etc.

$50 is impossible to trade. I suggest either virtual or paper trading. It simulates almost exact trading conditions for you to learn better.

You might want to create a "practice" portfolio at http://www.top10traders.com - it's free - each month the site ranks the best-performing investors.


TechFarm
Glad that you are thinking about it!

You can try experimenting with various contents, and even sites such as marketocracy.com where you create your own mutual fund.

But in general, you have to start somewhere, read about the stock market, learn about the stock market.

You can also watch Jim Cramers CNBC show "Mad Money" too.

Here's a link on how to get started:
