I guess this would go here, but if not it can be moved.

Ive been interested in buying stocks recently. im only 16 and i dont know how. i dont want to go through a broker or anything, i want to do it by myself. im not looking to buy like 100 stocks of something, just like 1, then if it gets higher, sell it, then buy another one, and see how i do. how can i buy stocks. my parents said i can, i just dont know how to go about it. thanks.

Many brokerage houses will allow day trading. Be very careful and do your research in this situation--it is very easy to loose your investment. You will be totally on your own when making buy/sell decesions.
