Also do you have any good sources for learning? I know BabyPips for Forex but what about stocks?
I'd give forex trading a go. It is easy to start and currency pairs work easier than stocks.
The most important thing in forex trading is money management. There is no magic strategy, all strategies are as good as your money management is.

What is foreign exchange trading (forex )
FOREX – The foreign exchange trading market or currency market is a non-stop financial market where currencies of different nations are traded. FOREX trading is the most liquid financial market across the globe.
By liquid, that means a high level of trading wherein foreign currencies are traded rapidly any time within the 24-hour operation of the market. Many big international business organizations are invested heavily in FOREX trading and earn huge amount of money.
Binary trading is notoriously risky but if you follow a special method I've learned you can earn good money at almost no risk. This is the site I use: ( http://forexsignal.kyma.info ) I definitely recommend subscribing to this site in particular. I was a bit weary of binary trading from all the bad hype they receive but this site is pretty legit. This course explain everything you need to start a very profitable trading activity. Remember never invest 100% of your capital into any one security and never have 100% of your capital invested and a good understanding of the rules
The secret word of trading success is "organized". You can't be successful without a strategy, a plan and some kind of technological support. I use a software called "autobinary signals" that is helping me a lot. There are plenty of them on the market. I recommend this one because it's very easy to use (you don't have to be an expert or have special skills to make money with it).

I wonder why people can't just answer the question directly. IMO, I would do stocks, then funds, then forex, then options.
Forex spam.
for beginners i would say forex, because it is more volatile. i would start with learning basic strategies like price action. and then go from there. but keep in mind that news may trigger moves, so keep an eye out for big news releases. first try out with a demo account and see what works for you. then you could start with a small investment and get comfortable to trade with real money. after that, sky is the limit.
There's hard;ly any diff btw forex & stock trading ,as far as "exposure" is concerned.You actually need to learn & find your way to be profitable(ppls lose money in both ways & experts make money both ways)
for stocks: search WWI (world-wide-investment) forums.Many valuable books are offered for free.
a fool and is money are soon parted
An absolute beginner does it in half the time
You shouldn't be "trading" anything. "Trading" is a fool's errand pushed by the brokerage industry and exchanges.
