Congratulations on your early interest in the stock market. Do you have regular income? Of course, you can always invest in an ETF or even Bitcoin if you have something left over and there's no other shit going on in your personal life at the moment, but don't try to find the perfect strategy just yet. You will get to know yourself over time and see what type of investor you are if you remain interested. I would also find out if you are already legally allowed to have a share portfolio, or will your father/mother do it for you? I wish you all the best, keep your interest and, if possible, invest a hunny from your grandma and don't do anything wrong. LG

I (also 15) would start by saving in a global etf and if you want to invest in individual stocks, don't read up on them first - you can lose a lot of money in no time at all if you have no idea what you're buying (speaking from experience).

As a beginner, I would simply start with the MSCI World. Your watchlist is huge, you can hardly see through it yourself. Make it as easy as possible for yourself, invest in your knowledge first and then you can always start with individual stocks. You still have your whole life ahead of you :)

My tip: make a small savings plan in an ETF (MSCI World or similar). It may still be a bit early for individual shares (order costs for small amounts eat up too much return).

So: a small savings plan, even if it's a bit boring for you. In the meantime, use the time to keep your interest in the market high. Maybe earn 1-2 K through a vacation job and use it to invest in individual stocks.

On *no* account go into gambling stocks. Bet on big players and hold them.

By the time you're 20, you'll have a decent portfolio.

It's very cool that you're already starting out at 15! I've been investing myself since I was 13 and I've made a lot of mistakes (China small caps and holding companies in the Cayman Islands) and lost a lot of money in the process. Now that I'm 15, I have to say that gambling with individual stocks is of course interesting, but it will be hard to beat the market in the long run. That's why I have an ETF base of over 80% and then one or two individual shares that I find interesting. Experience, especially with individual stocks, is important, but it's better to build up a market-neutral base first and then venture into riskier bets with a small amount of your capital. LG
