Intraday Forex trading involves identifying short term trades which usually last between 4-6 bars.  What this translates to is that your trades will usually start and end on the same trading day.

While intraday trading is risky in the equity markets, it actually is less risky in the Forex markets.  This is because the foreign currencies market is much larger with trillions of dollars traded a day.  In addition, there is a lot of volume of trades and you are working with the currencies of major countries.

A a result, intraday trading methods are plentiful and are easily identified with simple indicators and simple charts.  This makes it easy for a novice trader to identify trades and to implement them.  They are quite simple with very clear indications of when to open and close.

Other benefits of intraday trading include less stress as there is no second guessing about whether to keep a profitable trade open to make more or whether to keep a losing trade open in hopes it will turn.  These emotion based decisions are behind most Forex trading failures.

There is no time to let emotion get involved when you trade intraday using an effective trading method.

Forex Nitty Gritty teaches a very effective intraday trading method and focuses on identifying only the most profitable and least risky trades.
