Taking the time to develop your own forex day trading strategies can be a daunting long term task. As you learn and trade your strategies evolve into new and more powerful ones. To help you get the right kinds of trading strategies, I'm going to give you some advice to help you out.
You need to understand one specific point about buying, selling, trading and investing; the time. You're going to take money out of your pocket to invest in a trade. You no longer have the money, it's tied up in the trade and you don't get the benefits of the profit until the trade is over. This is the time I'm talking about. The time from when you first trade to the time you get your money back. Having money sooner is better than later, because you can use that money now and make more trades, making you more money. You need to identify this in your day trading strategy because you can't wait too long for your return on money.
You will also need to be able to identify trends when you're doing forex day trading. Trends are basically commonalities in the way the currency acts. Since there is a common behavior, you can predict where the currency will go on a short term basis. For example, if a currency has been going up for a little bit, you can identify that it will probably keep going up some more in the short future. Having the foresight to identify these trends makes your forex day trading strategies just that more powerful.
Lastly your trading strategies should have rigid rules that protect you from experiencing bad losses. You're going to have bad days and bad trades, it's part of this business. Having a set of rigid rules that you cannot break will force you to exit a trade long before you lose any significant amount of money.
As you work to develop your own forex day trading strategies, you need to be always thinking of your bottom line over the long term. Often times you'll feel like you're not making enough, but it all pays off in the long run.
