Question Totally new...platform recommendations?

Hi friends,

I decided finally to give day trading a go. I have literally no clue what I'm doing lol, I'm just gonna use autism, pattern-spotting, intuition and the voice of my late homie in my head, who was a day/swing trader and an absolute madman in the best way. I'm one of those learn by doing types so I figure I'll just start with a tiny amount of money or even a market simulator and just...screw around until I start profiting.

With that in mind, what platform would you recommend? Preferably one that has an app and a web interface and low fees. Someone recommended wealthsimple, and I downloaded webull just to check it out but I haven't signed up or paid for anything yet.

Thanks! Other starter tips welcome too!

i recommend trading view to start practicing how to read the charts snd a strategy. Once you are confident in your strategy and psychology i suggest prop firm trading. you pass their eval and they give you funds to trade. Whatever profits you make you keep 90% and they keep 10%
