Don't day trade: Unfortunately, the biggest myth of currency trading is that day trading makes money, but it is almost a false illusion.

Being as a novice trader, swing trading can be the easier option as it requires less patience and trades come around more often.

Don’t diversify too much: In currency trading, diversification is the enemy of making really big profits. Therefore, if you wish to make big profits, its better to take calculated risks on the really good trades and go for maximum profits. This is the simplest way you can make really big gains.

Trade in pairs but with major currencies: This is the very vital tip that you must concern seriously. It is just like maintaining any relationship in day to day world. In this currency trading you must have the proper knowledge of both the currencies, not only one. Besides this, never trade minor currencies that can feature erratic moves or currencies that don’t have a long history. Stay with the major currencies, like US $, British Pound, Euro Swiss Franc and Japanese yen, as they can give you plenty of opportunities, so use them properly.
