Watch your credit score, eat decent, get enough sleep, stretch, read real books, and develop a skill valuable to society (college, vocational training, military service, entrepreneurship, whatever). Save 10% of everything you earn in a dollar cost averaging strategy (Google that). Be nice to your mom. Congrats on adulting!

Never ever ever be late on your credit card payments or put yourself in a position where you know you won’t be able to pay when the bill comes due

DONT DAY TRADE unless it’s money that you don’t need. Investing in something like VOO or VTI is much more beginner friendly and lower risk than day trading. It’s a great long term investment even though it’s less sexy. Also open a high yield savings account. Something like SOFI is a great option for beginners

Open Roth IRA and try your best to max it out every year assuming you have earned income

Get a credit card and pay it off every month. Open a Roth IRA, Brokerage account, and HYSA and invest in those HEAVY 💪🏾

If you're a beautiful woman and 18, there are a lot of options open to you. You're probably aware of a lot of them. I don't want to get hate on here so I'll just say something PC like "Start saving more than you spend"

I think copy trading is a go for you. Since you can keep your eyes on your account and track the progress steadily. It’s actually pretty cool. With copy trading, you basically follow experienced traders, and your account automatically copies their moves. So even if you’re new to it, you can still potentially make gains while you learn. I can walk you through it if you ever want to try.
