Starting with 1000 is pretty tough unless your playing with penny stocks or doing some options. Personally I would save a bit more until you have some more capital to invest with.
Maybe you could tell everyone what your risk levels are and what you possibly hope to achieve
Do lots of reading investopedia is a good start if you have no clue what your doing
I would not recommend a bank to do your trades because the commission rates they charge would rape your profits (30$ a trade so you'd have to earn at least 60$ each time in order to break even)
Find a small broker that have like <10$ commissions and start from there (If they have TFSA trading accounts even better)
