As a newbie, to get lot of experience (i.e. screen time) is the most important thing... do you have the time to watch the market for a year or two?
If the answer is no, you might want to give RapidSP a shot. Google it. Basically, you can watch price action at various speeds for the most commonly traded futures contracts (ES, YM, NQ...etc.) for every day back to about year 2000 or so.
So if you like 5 min charts, instead of watching the screen all day, you load the program, set the speed and off you go. You can pause at any moment. You can get through the day as slow or as fast as you like, pausing at critical junctures in order to examine what's going on. You can also place paper trades.
This was you can cram years of screen time into just a few months.  It's not the same, but it's the second best.
Now, on the downside, the software is crappy in lot of ways. They have a good product, but it has some very annoying quirks. It's a neat toy though.
PS I should add that I am not a vendor and don't get anything if you buy it.
