Starting to trade in stocks can be an exciting and daunting prospect. But before you start, it's important to make sure you have a solid understanding of the basics and have a plan in place.

Here's a checklist of what you need to do before you start trading stocks:

1. Understand the basics. This includes knowing how the stock market works, what stocks are, and how to buy and sell them.

2. Do your research. Once you understand the basics, it's time to start doing your research on individual stocks. This includes looking at a company's financials, news, and other publicly available information.

3. Create a trading plan. This plan should include your investment goals, risk tolerance, and strategies for buying and selling stocks.

4. Open a brokerage account. Once you have a plan in place, you'll need to open a brokerage account so you can start trading.

5. Start trading! This is the exciting part. But remember, always stick to your plan and don't let emotions get in the way of your investment decisions.
