Learning Effective Forex Day Trading Strategies

Anyone can participate in the Forex market on their own with a computer, internet connection and a brokerage service. The market is worldwide and is open 24 hours a day. It is by far the largest market available for trading and speculating. The risks are extremely high mainly because of the leverage involved. Forex day trading is available to anyone with the nerve to give it a try.

Leverage allows you to trade amounts that are much bigger than the cash you put up for the trade. In effect the trader is borrowing money to make the trade but closes out the trade to pay the loan back and if the value of the underlying asset has moved in the right direction makes a profit on the trade. If it moves in the wrong direction a loss occurs on the trade.

Using leverage the profit or loss will be a much higher percentage of the actual cash used for the trade. This is why risk is so high when trading on leverage. For example, if the contract traded is $50,000 and the cash paid into the trade is $1,000, a 1% movement in either direction will result in a $500 profit or loss, which is 50% of the capital invested. It is easy to lose all of the capital and more very quickly trading on margin. The potential gains are enough for Forex day trading to be very profitable as well.  
With a computer and internet connection all that is needed is software to trade Forex and brokers make the software available when an account is opened. A trader can try out the software and practice trading through a demo account with almost all brokers. It is important to try out software and pick a trading platform that has the desired features from a broker who provides useful training and research products.  

When learning to day trade, use free information. There are free trading courses offered by many brokerage firms. Go through several and find a couple of good ones to complete. It may be a time consuming process but Forex is a continuous learning experience. There is always more to learn. Also use a simulator to practice trades and to develop strategies. Practice until consistently profitable. Almost all new traders lose money at first. By practicing with a simulator traders become profitable much faster.

Forex day trading involves trading currency pairs against each other. For example, sell dollars and buy Euros, or vice versa, depending on how the market is expected to move. To make the right trade research is required. It is important to study pairs of currency and understand trends and factors that make the currencies rise and fall against one another. It is also important to follow economic and political news for events that will cause movements in the currencies. It is important to understand and be able to use fundamental analysis and technical analysis to identify profitable trades. The learning curve in Forex trading is steep and continual. There are always events occurring around the world that move the currency markets.
