I'm not going to recommend 'trading casually' but I would advise you to understand your goals, have a clear picture of any major upcoming purchases etc. to start with to understand what funds you can allocate to your portfolio.
I'm not sure if you fall into this camp but I sometimes recommend people give this a read when they are starting out -

Then index 95% of your portfolio, and use the last 5% for investing in individual stocks (a.k.a. buy VCoins, pick Stanley cup champs and short TSLA via puts. Or Canadian bank stock, its up to you.)
