I am new to Forex and have a question regarding swap fee, if I leave my trades day by day, does swap fee raise then? or swap is charged for only one day (but the trades still open for several days)?

- Is there anyway to avoid swaps?
 
For most brokers swap (carry) is done at the end of the day, so if you close out a position before day's end you'll avoid it. OANDA calculates carry continuously, though, so you would pay/receive it no matter when during the day you close out a trade (for open positions it's paid/charged at day's end like everyone else).
