I am from Miami Florida and looking for help to trade
Hello @omgil877! Welcome to babypips. I don’t think you can trade until you’re 18. Maybe you can use the time until you’re 18 to learn and demo trade.
Yea I am in that debate with the internet to figure out if I can or can’t. But in the meantime I am learning right now how the stock market works and how I can trade safely in it. I don’t want to trade right away since I’ve been trading paper money in a demo account and even though I understand the candle sticks patterns(I read a book on them) I don’t understand how to use the platform nor the exact logic how I can make money or loose it(don’t understand yet leverages, strategies, how much of my money should I use).
Thanks for the advice :)
hey @omgil877 you seem to me quite excited about trading, thats a very good thing. but what you have learn till now might not be sufficient for you to be a successful trader. learn as much as you can then open a demo account with any broker and get experience of trading. by using demo you will get the better idea that how platform works actually. Don’t make hurry of jumping on the live account.
good luck
I’m a newbie myself and I want to demo trade for a couple of months, maybe a year or two, it depends on how much time I can really devote to focusing on learning. Please let us know about your learning journey too. It would be interesting to learn how you are going about trading. Maybe even to inspire us more because at such a young age you are already interested in trading.
