Take a free trial at www.tradingmarkets.com You will get a lot of free useful stuff there. Go to www.stockcharts.com their free tutorials are great for technical trading A lot of what I learned was from chat rooms and visiting all the sites that I could. I like the method from the book Bollinger on Bollinger bands. That is really simple and it does work percentage wise and all charting services calculate them. You can get a cheap copy at Amazon. and visit www.bollinger.com The only problem with not being mentored is you will loose a lot of money while you are learning. Even if you paper trade first for months, actual money makes you crazy at first.
