I remember being in your shoes when I first started trading. One tool that really helped me get my feet wet was the app Investopedia's Stock Simulator. It offers a great way to practice trading without risking any real money. For market analysis and portfolio management, I found TradingView to be incredibly user-friendly with comprehensive charting capabilities and a vibrant community that shares strategies and insights.
In terms of learning about investment strategies, I recommend checking out books like "A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Burton Malkiel which gives a solid foundation in investing philosophy. Additionally, podcasts such as "The Investors Podcast" can provide ongoing education and keep you updated with market trends.
One tip that helped me early on was to start small and learn through each investment decision. Trying to absorb too much information at once can be overwhelming, so focus on one strategy or market at a time. Engaging with online forums like this can also be beneficial, as you can learn a lot from others' experiences and questions.
