A good place to start is with a couple of classics: "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham and "Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits" by Philip Fisher. I think Warren Buffet once said that his investment philosophy was 1/3 Ben Graham and 2/3 Philip Fisher.
Next, know yourself. Only you can know how much risk you're comfortable with and where you might have an edge.
Third, consider investing the bulk of your money in an inexpensive Index fund or ETF and make individual stock investments only when you think you have an edge. Stick with what you know. Unless your investment opinion is significantly different than the consensus view (and ultimately more correct) it's already priced into the stock.
Finally, cut your losses and be patient with your winners.

You should try with Penny Stocks Trading (you can find more info here: http://pennystocks.toptips.org )
Penny stocks, also known as cent stocks in some countries, are common shares of small public companies that trade at low prices per share.
I've been subscribing to this PennyStock web site for about a year now and have loved the objective advice they give. He really does look for quality stocks and I've made some pretty nice profits on a lot of his suggestions. Being still fairly new to investing I have been dabbling a lot in penny stocks to try and grow my account. I may not have a big account, but it's a lot bigger than it was a year ago. On just one of Nathan's picks this year I managed to make my investment back ten-fold! Be careful! Penny stocks are notoriously risky but if you follow the right method the risk is almost 0. I suggest to invest only little money first and then reinvest the profits. This is the site I'm using: http://pennystocks.toptips.org
Bye Bye
