I am not expecting big things straight away but want to at least learn the basics.
You're on the right path with this mindset, I'll recommend you watch some youtube videos on trading, there's useful channels that teaches the basic of trading and their teaches are very helpful. I can't remember their names as its been long I used this channel to add to my knowledge but as I come across the channels I'll edit them in this post. I love using youtube to learn than reading books because with YouTube you can be visualizing what you're been taught.
You can combined video with books so you understand better, an advice I'll give you is to calm down and learn very well before you want to start making money from trading because if you don't learn properly, all your efforts will be a waste as you'll keep losing to the market.
