How can I get hands-on experience to learn equity trading on London stock exchange?
I've a small sum (around GBP 4,000) in hand, and make a modest saving every month as well. I really want to learn equity trading and utilize it as a second means of income. However, I don't know I can start trading on a low risk (and low cost) level to get on this learning curve.. My friends are advising to avoid this risky course and look into mutual funds, but this will rob me of hands on experience Please advice. Thank you

- before trading the real money, use an assimilated program that will allow you to learn without taking big risks. It is also wise to take courses in investments and learn as much as you can before you start playing with your life savings.
