If you go to the Berkshire Hathaway website, symbol BRKA, and devour Buffett's annual shareholder letters, you will be very well rewarded. He's the second richest guy in the world for a reason. And he unbuttons some complex things in a very understandable, enjoyable way.

I second the earlier comment - avoid anything related to trading stocks based on technicals. Utter claptrap.

Another idea is to read Roger Lowenstein's book on Buffett, The Making of an American Capitalist.

Good luck. it's an awesome journey, and if you have the right temperament (that's more improtant than IQ), you will make a lot of money and have a great time doing it.

But you need to devote a lot of time to it...otherwise buy an index fund and be done with it.
