You must file if your unearned income (interest, dividends, capital gains...) is more than $850. Once you have income from stocks and mutual funds, your parents cannot elect to include your income in their return.
You file Income Tax return Form 1040 and schedule D (Form 1040) Capital Gains.

Yes you do. The percent tax will depend on how much you make, but won't be over 15%. You'll fill out a 1040 and a schedule D.

YES -- either the brokerage office, or the firm you hold stock in will send you a 1099 form around the end of Janurary. They also send a copy to the IRS

unless the law has changed... have no clue if so..
but use to be years ago.. that minors could make up to a certain amount without having to file..
and then if that amount was exceeded then it could be applied or added to the parents income

If you make a small amount, no. See the standard deduction for dependents table at www.irs.gov.
