i have been trading on ameritrade for about 6 months, Im a beginner too. You can open an account there with 500 or less. But if you open it with 1000 you get 25 free trades which are worth 10.99 a piece.

1) penny/micro stocks might turn your 500$ into 5000K in 2 days(not typical)
That is where you could see the biggest gains out of your money. But obviously you could lose it too.
The chances of seeing a 1000% return on your money in a week on stocks over 1$ is very, very rare. But I have seen this happen many times with penny/micro cap stocks.

2) Look for a broker that doesn't charge fees for having under 2k invested.

3) What kind of calculators, and no you dont necissarily need to be able to read the charts in order to make money. Although if you are capible of reading charts, you might be able to pick up on certain trends and breakout points. But there are many people here who often alert people on what the charts are saying.

A Beginners Guide to Day Trading Online. The book cost me 15$ about 3 years ago. Teaches you how to read the candlesticks and chart patterns. Its an ok book for 15$ if they still sell it.
