Virtualstockexchange.com isnt bad. I think most online brokers let you trade virtually (no risk no money). I think ThinkorSwim has a good software that lets you paper trade in past markets. In terms of teaching you how to trade well that comes with years of experience. Read books, articles, and watching CNBC. If you just mean how to transact a security well it depends on your broker. normally you click the trade button and enter share number and ticker symbol. lol. pretty simple.

do not trust anyone

scottrade.com is best for both beginners and professionals.

Not every online stock trading site will work for you because some are stronger in one area, while weaker in another. I suggest you browse through site pages, although some parts will be off limits unless you have an account. Charles Schwab E*Trade Firstrade Scottrade TD Ameritrade Wells Fargo Personally, I have been using Speedtrader - http://speedtrader.com/ for years and I have been satisfied with costs and service. Good luck!

A trading company is just a broker or an intermediary within the exchange. They just link buyers and sellers using technology of online trading. You dont buy or sell with that company. Imagine, you are holding a stock and at the other end, I am waiting to buy that share. How do we buy or sell. The broker simply lists the availability of the share over the system and at the other end, a buyer is intimated about the availability thru the same system. so the trading company just place the role like ebay or online shopping. all traders in the exchange are intimated about availability of shares thru the online trading companies. At times, with special rights, the same company can buy or sell shares for its ownself. Overall, they just connect investors for a fee called brokerage. In a secondary market, shares are traded amongst investors, not companies which issue them
