Before you spend $0.01 on any investment, you must know what you’re doing, why you’re doing it and how to do it. Before you invest in any security, the first investment you should make is in yourself, and the best investment you can make is by educating yourself.
Begin your education by learning why you should invest and the importance of being able to make your own decisions or how the pro’s make theirs. Start your education by reading “Investing or Dummies” by Eric Tyson.
ITo continue your education you should select some of the following

Websites that can provide instructions and help with procedures and terminology are Investopedia – http://www.investopedia.com/http://www.investorshub.com/ and 1 Source for Stocks – http://www.1source4stocks.com/info/stock… or Smart Money http://www.smartmoney.com/
Visit some of the more professional websites like Zacks Research – http://www.zacks.com/ Schaeffer’s http://www.schaeffersresearch.com/ Investors Business Daily – http://www.investors.com/default.htm?fro…
Some of these web sites will have advertisers who are worth looking into also. And remember, if they offer free information, get it.
Attend all the free seminars you can, just be careful and don’t get pressured into anything you really don’t want or need. Most schools offer courses in finance and economics, but very few will have courses on the mechanics of the investment markets, if they do try taking the course. You may want to consider on-line courses, the New York Institute of Finance use to have such courses. Try to get some fee information from The stocks exchanges they all have (had) free booklets, SIAC and some of the regulators (FINRA SEC MSRB CBOE) may provide some free literature.
And when you think you want to invest/trade, try some paper trading to test your skills without spending you money http://simulatorinvestopedia.com/http://www.moneyworks4me.com/
and/or http://www.tradingsimulation.com/
You at least have made the right decision to start investing, this is the first big step and it won’t be your last. Keep taking those steps forward and along the way never take the advice from people that are not in the market or try to tell you not to invest.
Good luck on journey, study hard and you’ll invest well.
One way to start would be to invest in No-Load mutual funds, like those in the Vanguard family of funds or those in T.Rowe Price.You can invest “so much a month”. Stick with the high quality blue chip funds, They’re a lot safer.
Your parents or guardian will have to sign for you. You can ho online and get all the information you need. Or you can call them.
Start by reading books.Thats the only viable option.
What I would do if just go to amazon.com>books>investing in stocks/commodities/forex/CFDs etc
and just pick one with the best reviews.Then I would just buy or download it 😉
Good Luck.
