Ask HN: Best resources for trading noobs
I've always wanted to do a bit of trading, but feel like I lack knowledge in a bunch of areas. Since there's a ton of you guys who are quite versed in trading of stocks and options, so I'm wondering if you could list good starting points for people who like me are interested in getting started on the stock market. Papers, books, webpages are all okay.
I'm an avid reader and and want to dedicate a bit of time to economics and markets in particular. Help! Thanks guys.
