demarco05, here is my 2cents, forget about it! I've been trying to trade since 1999, lost at least $200k and had plenty of help by the best traders around. It's pathetic for you to start with $1000 and hope you're gonna make money. Before it's too late, don't do it, take it or leave it, but 99% chance that you will loose, but then again, loosing $1000 bucks is not a big deal, the big deal is when you loose them and get hooked and start using borrowed money to recover and keep loosing more, then you will remember my advice to you. Quit before you start. Good luck to you.
