Introduction

Day trading rewards those who align with intraday momentum and manage risk ruthlessly. A currency strength meter gives the first part; your execution gives the second.

See intraday dashboards at www.currencystrengthsmeters.com.

Intraday plan

  1. Pre-London scan: shortlist top-vs-bottom currencies.
  2. Mark levels: yesterday’s high/low, session open, VWAP (optional).
  3. Entry: trade pullbacks or breakouts that align with strength and structure.
  4. Risk: fixed stop (0.5%–1% per trade) and a hard daily loss cap.

Example

Meter shows USD strong, JPY weak. On USD/JPY M15, price consolidates below a prior high. Breakout occurs during London–NY overlap with rising volume: enter, stop under consolidation, target 1:2 or trail below higher lows.

Exit tactics

  • Time-based (flatten near session close).
  • Structure-based (exit on lower-high/loss of momentum).
  • Partial take-profits to de-risk and let runners work.

Final note

Speed + structure win. If you’re guessing, you’re late; if you’re planned, you’re early.
