Also, southbeach4me's commentary of using a demo account is a good idea. Thats a good way to learn the basics of trading with no risk. Ultimately however trading without risking money is like playing poker without betting.

That's the nice thing about practice trading FX with Oanda, you can trade a practice account with no risk, but better yet you can fund a very tiny account and at least have a bit of skin in the game.
 
If she's only willing to lose 10% of the 10k, then her stake is really 1k. I suggest she paper trade or maybe trade tiny lots of her stock just to have some skin in the game while she learns.

Good luck.
 
Hey everyone, I am searching for a seasoned futures trader with some good advice and accountabilty. I have been trading simulated for a couple of years now, trying to hone my skills and abilities. One problem though, I am accountable to no one and that doesn't keep me disciplined at times. I would relish a person who could help me, I need another voice to bounce ideas and thoughts off of. Amyone interested in helping a pretty cool, laid back individual who just wants to live the trading life?

+1. saying you want to trade w/o the possibility of losing more than 10% is like saying you want to learn how to swim w/ the possibility of getting wet.
