if you're brand new, my recommendation would be take everything EVERYONE says with a grain of salt. learn how to read charts, patterns, etc. only trust your own intuition. get Robinhood for your phone for long executions. add capital to it every pay check you get. start slowly growing it while continuously learning.

open an account with stocktwits (again. a lot of the people on there are bullshit BUT some say some quality shit so just figure out who to follow. it shows trending stocks and a lot of people on there post potentially good stocks to watch. thats how i found MGT at .74). open a account with stockview . com its a free charting site that you can learn from. mess around with that for awhile. keep setting goals. cut losses quickly no matter what people say about a stock

a lot of people online will tell you to just hold through big dips, it'll go back up. you're playing with fire if you listen to them. take no ones alerts until you do your own Due diligence for it. even stock "gurus" mess up.

I get you and thanks for the words of advice i really appreciate that. I was always interested in the markets just never took the time i guess and for the last few weeks ive been researching and reading up on terms, charts , patterns and i figured id give ot a shot bit didnt know where or how to start. Thanks again
