Hi Patty, there is an account that I use which is totally free. The only fee I pay is for the markets I have in my watchlist. I think it's about R18 a month. You can also do simulation or real trading. I have been really impressed as you usually have to pay for the software. I am also trying to learn about share trading, you always hear about people working from home trading for a couple hours a day but I haven't experienced that yet. One thing I do know about share trading is that you need to be 100% emotionally disconnected from your trades which is VERY difficult to do.
