[Bodman]

Hi, I have wanted to dabble in shares for a while now but always wondered how the fk to get started. I went to TDW's site and tried to create a account but there is 4 to choose from.

Any help/pointers please

With regards to TDW - probably a trading account or trading ISA. Briefly, the trading account will let you buy any share, the ISA won't. The trading account will be subject to capital gains after the first 10k of profit in a year, but the ISA only lets you put in 10k a year.

There's a lot more to take in, read the link above first and come back with any questions
