Not much personal experience there myself, have done some derivatives trading and CFD's but was unsuccessful as it was an emotional rollercoaster.
You could check out one of the many share trading forums and get plenty of free info on the ASX website.
There are many people out there making lots of money on FOREX trading, most would be institutions I would assume.
However, the sucess rate would be very low, I would guess that only a few % of people (individuals) who try can be sucessful long term.
If you don't try, you will never know.
Paper trading is free.
However, when you put your real cash down, that's when it matters and it's not so comfortable then.
Good luck to you
