19 year old

Hi,

I wasn't too sure where to post this, but I needed to get some advice form people on this site.

I am a 19 year old sophomore going to be a junior next year, currently I am finishing summer 1 classes and will be taking an investment banking internship at a Turkish bank called "Isbankasi" (I am Turkish).

Given the summer and my generally flexible schedule I feel as if I could get some experience trading, more specifically I want to do something that requires active attention to manage and make money.

I was wondering where would be a good place such as forex, day trading or futures market where I can start trading at either 1000 dollars or above (over time I will put more money in).

Basically I'm looking for advice in which place would be best for a newbie at trading to trade at... sorry for awkward sentence..

Anyways I want to focus on one aspect and really learn what I can first and than get some actual real experience trading with money.
