I don't have a Robinhood account and never would, as all my stock trading buddies and I consider it to be rather amateurish compared to more established brokers.
The best way to learn any new platform, imo, is through YouTube videos. Here's one to start with:

watch?v=pDuIvrirPPc&pp=ygUhcm9iaW5ob29kIGludmVzdGluZyBmb3IgYmVnaW5uZXJz

It sounds like you're new to trading, and if you are, learn the platform well before to make any trades, and when you do trade, go slow, and go small. Making money trading stocks isn't as easy as some brokers make it out to be. If it was, everyone would be doing it, and everyone would be rich.

Good luck.

Not sure what you searched on YouTube or what video you were trying to link, but what you have there is gibberish.

I'm up about about 1500% on my investment of $30,000 (glad I didnt buy gold). Whenever I have extra cash I put it in btc. Todays prices are still a bargain. The US dollar is destined to fail and bitcoin is scarce, only 21,000,000 will ever be mined.
