if youre dead set on stocks, though, just buy some easy broad index fund like VOO/VTI/whatever sounds good and keep accumulating when you get paid
>but i want to be a trader!
open a paper trading account now
practice with fake money to get experience risk-free
then, when you build up confidence, you can utilize your training to put down real money and then suddenly start losing all the trades you were winning before with fake money
do this for a while until you decide to crunch the numbers and realize you wouldve made far more from just accumulating a broad asset and doing nothing
you have now earned the title of trader and can safely pivot back to just accumulating some index fund
