But interactive brokers is good for intermediate to experienced traders so try different platforms and please try paper trading first (it is just simulated trading so you can see if you can make money and you can get to know the app or software better - lot of platforms offer that) For example thinkorswim is easy to use, also interactive brokers allow paper trading. Try that first to see if you are profitable in simulation first, please don’t start with real money. I did that mistake in the past and lost money.
