Every beginner who wants to understand the intricacies of trading on the currency market must know what a Pip on Forex is, as this concept is mentioned in the Forex literature quite often.
For currency pairs, a pip or point forex is usually one decimal American dollar. Also, 1 pip can be equated to one basis point or a hundredth of a percent.
A unit of one pip at Forex is a small indicator in the change of one or another currency pair.
So, if you still ask yourself a question: how much is one pip, then you need to understand once and for all that this is the minimum price change of a currency pair or another asset in the Forex market.

When there is a change in price, we just say one pip change. Maybe this will help you - https://www.babypips.com/learn/forex/pips-and-pipettes

A pip, short for point in percentage, represents a tiny measure of the change in a currency pair in the forex market. A pip is the smallest fraction that a currency pair can move. Suppose, the eurusd is at 1.09457, then a one pip advance will make it 1.09458

PIP which stands for “point in percentage” is the smallest difference in the change in the price of two currencies. It is basically a unit of measurement to define the smallest change in the value between two currencies. It is the measurement of currency movement. It is also used for ascertaining loss & gains.
For example- if the price of EURUSD moves from 1.1402 to 1.1403 this would be one pip.

The point in percentage (PIP) is a standardized unit and it is more commonly referred to as 1/100th of 1%, or one basis point.

A pip, short for 'percentage in point' or 'price interest point,' represents a tiny measure of the change in a currency pair in the forex market. It can be measured in terms of the quote or in terms of the underlying currency

Pip is an acronym for 'percentage in point' or 'price interest point.' A pip is the smallest price move that an exchange rate can make based on forex market convention. Most currency pairs are priced out to four decimal places and the pip change is the last (fourth) decimal point.

I think trading is not about increasing your daily pips. It is about being disciplined with your trading. You have to create some rules for your trading like risk reward ratio. I personally follow 1:2 risk reward ratio. It means i risk 10 pips against 20 pips profit.

As many have mentioned the definition has been given already but I would suggest for help with these sorts of fundamental questions going through something like the BabyPips school as all this jargon and much more is in there and it's free.
If you can't spot the liquidity then you are the liquidity.

Most currency pairs are priced out to four decimal places and the pip change is the last (fourth) decimal point. A pip is thus equivalent to 1/100 of 1% or one basis point. For example, the smallest move the USD/CAD currency pair can make is $0.0001 or one basis point. I believe that it's very important to understand all the terms in trading because it clarifies you many aspects in this activity, even the most complicated ones.

The forex pip refers to the movement of price from one point to another. If the price of eurusd moves up to 1.1610 then eurusd has moved three pips upwards, that's how pip works, and don't forget that we have ask and bit price, if the current price of eurusd is 1.1607 then the bid price will be 1. 16010.
