Which are the factors which affects day trading?

Day traders begin and exit positions on the same day (as opposed to swing and position traders), eliminating the possibility of huge overnight changes. At the end of the day, they either profit or lose on their position. Trades are often held for minutes or hours, requiring ample time to analyse markets and periodically check holdings throughout the day. Day traders, like scalpers, rely on numerous tiny wins to generate profits.

In fact day trading tend to be more profitable when we measure performance in the long-run because impact of trading costs is often underestimated. I used raw spread account from Hotforex to do scalping but still long-term results is better for swing trading account

Exactly! Day trading focuses on capturing intraday price moves, avoiding overnight risks. Success requires sharp analysis, discipline, and consistent strategies. By accumulating small, frequent gains, day traders aim to achieve steady profits while managing risks effectively. It’s demanding but rewarding!
 
The quality of day trading is also affected by the speed of order execution. Therefore, you need to choose brokers that, in addition to low spreads, also provide instant execution. I liked the trading conditions at fxopen.
You're correct that fast order execution is crucial for day trading, as delays can impact trade outcomes. Choosing a broker with both tight spreads and quick execution is key to improving trading efficiency. It's always important to carefully review the broker's conditions and ensure they meet your trading needs.
 
Also, when trading intraday, it is important to control the time of publication of important news from the economic calendar, which at a given time can create strong volatility in the market and significantly affect your trading results, both for the better and provide an impressive loss.
