I'm in the same boat as you, interested but don't know what to do. So I've done this:
1. Read 'A New Trading for a Living', this will teach you about how to trade without a computer, understand indicators, trader psychology. I figure if you can't trade using daily charts, you won't be able be any good in a shorter timeframe
2. Learn how to use quantopian (or similar). I figure that this would be helpful getting into how the right mindset for automated trading
3. Go look at open jobs for HFT firms, see what skills they're advertising for, talk to a recruiter, etc. I'm lucky in NYC and that job area is available
