is the best way to learn about trading and investing trial and error and reading books?

1. Well you could do that, but I suggest that you educate yourself first. Care full about signing up for these weekend seminars and the Holy Grail programs as there are no Holy Grails to investing. Surround yourself with good basics and ongoing support. I offer classes, seminars, chart rooms and a live trading room ( going live Monday ) that is geared to helping you build a solid foundation. We want to teach people so they do not needs us anymore. http://www.teachtalktrade.com unclemike@teachtalktrade.com
2. Start with the following book: "Investing For Dummies." Its an excellent starter and fun to read. You can also look on Amazon or Barnes & Noble under "investing" for lots of other books. Learn BEFORE you invest. Trial & Error = Losses.
3. You first need to learn about investing. After you have adequate knowledge try a demo account. For stock pick learning try www.stockpickguide.com
4. Try "playing the market" without using actual money.
5. Yes. Simulation games don't take into account your emotional state that changes the moment you put your money on the line. Just make sure you only risk small amounts in the beginning and don't mistake beginner's luck for knowledge.

6. No.
