In two-way forex trading, forex traders often struggle to achieve unity of mind and hand, or unity of knowledge and action.

---

The root cause of this phenomenon lies in the fact that current forex traders, both theoretically and practically, have yet to fully convince their minds to recognize, respect, and highly value the complexity and expertise of forex trading. In other words, forex traders haven't fully embraced the challenges of forex trading and currently rely more heavily on their own subjective judgment and experience.
Specifically, forex traders often believe that only trading models they have developed through long-term accumulation and repeated refinement are trustworthy. These models, developed through daily study and practice, are highly personalized and adaptable. They believe that only knowledge gained through personal experience and practice can truly provide them with the confidence to persevere. Without this kind of firsthand experience, traders often feel lost and uncertain, which severely impacts their ability to stick to their trading strategies.
Furthermore, while repeating a forex trading model is certainly important, this model must be thoroughly researched and validated by the trader themselves. Only when traders thoroughly understand every detail of the model and can flexibly adjust it according to market fluctuations can they truly achieve unity of mind and hand, and unity of knowledge and action. This deep self-awareness and practical ability are the keys to successful forex investing.

In the two-way trading system of forex investment, due to its unique advantages of both long and short positions and the flexibility to respond to market fluctuations, rational forex investors tend to highly value every investment opportunity that aligns with their trading strategy.

Such opportunities not only offer the potential for profit from exchange rate fluctuations, but also require investors to make prudent judgments and decisions based on a multi-dimensional perspective, including macroeconomic data, geopolitical dynamics, and technical analysis. Therefore, every effective investment opportunity possesses high strategic value.
From the perspective of market participation, the competitive landscape in the foreign exchange investment and trading sector is not actually crowded. The core reasons can be attributed to two factors. First, from the perspective of traders' own qualities, foreign exchange trading places extremely high demands on investors' patience, discipline, and risk tolerance. The random nature of market fluctuations and the long-term nature of trend formation require investors to have the fortitude to adhere to a trading system and strictly implement stop-loss and take-profit strategies. However, in the real market, the proportion of traders who can overcome the temptation of short-term fluctuations and maintain rational operations is relatively low. Many participants withdraw midway due to lack of patience or emotional interference, which indirectly reduces the effective competition density in the market.
On the other hand, considering the differences in global regulatory environments, many countries and regions around the world have implemented varying degrees of restrictions on domestic foreign exchange investment and trading activities, driven by concerns such as maintaining local financial stability and preventing risks from cross-border capital flows. Some markets have even outright banned unauthorized foreign exchange trading. In stark contrast, stocks and futures, as traditional financial investment products, have a longer history, more mature regulatory systems, and are incorporated into the formal financial market framework in most countries and regions. They are generally not subject to the same strict restrictions or prohibitions as foreign exchange trading. This has led some potential investors to prefer the stock and futures markets, further diverting participants from the foreign exchange market.

In two-way foreign exchange trading, traders can consider not setting stop-loss orders when establishing or increasing positions in a consolidating market. This strategy is based on the characteristics of a consolidating market: small price fluctuations and unclear direction.

In this market environment, setting a stop-loss order can cause traders to frequently trigger stop-loss orders based on short-term market fluctuations, leading to the accumulation of small losses that ultimately lead to large losses. This phenomenon is common in ranging markets for stocks, futures, and forex. Stop-loss orders are often viewed as unnecessary losses, even jokingly referred to as "IQ taxes," and are one of the main causes of losses for retail investors.
In ranging markets, price fluctuations are typically limited, and the market lacks a clear trend. In these situations, setting a stop-loss order can cause traders to frequently trigger stop-loss orders based on short-term market fluctuations. This frequent stop-loss order not only depletes traders' capital but also undermines their confidence. Therefore, many traders choose not to set stop-loss orders in ranging markets, instead using a smaller position size to manage risk. This smaller position size can reduce the risk of a single trade to a certain extent, allowing traders to better navigate market uncertainty.
Unlike ranging markets, the function and role of stop-loss orders become particularly important in trending markets. Whether in trending markets for stocks, futures, or forex, the clarity of the trend makes stop-loss orders an effective risk management tool. By setting appropriate stop-loss points, traders can exit positions promptly when the market reverses, thereby protecting their capital. In trending markets, stop-loss orders can help traders manage risk and avoid significant losses from large market fluctuations.
The foreign exchange market has unique characteristics. Major central banks around the world typically constrain their currencies within a relatively narrow range. This policy results in long periods of consolidation and minimal price fluctuations. This market characteristic poses greater challenges for retail traders with small capital in the forex market. Due to the low volatility of the market, it is difficult for traders to achieve sufficient profit margins through short-term trading. Frequent stop-loss orders further exacerbate their losses. Many retail forex traders have depleted their initial capital through unwise stop-loss orders and ultimately been forced to exit the market.
For traders who prefer not to set stop-loss orders, a common strategy is to always hold a small position. This allows traders greater flexibility in the face of market fluctuations and avoids the significant risks associated with large positions. However, human nature is a weakness: even if traders can withstand fluctuations in losses, they often struggle to withstand fluctuations in profits. Many traders choose to exit prematurely upon seeing profits, thus missing out on greater profit opportunities. This phenomenon demonstrates that even when holding a small position, traders still need to overcome human weaknesses to achieve long-term, stable profits in the market.
In two-way forex trading, when establishing or increasing positions in a consolidating market, traders can consider avoiding stop-loss orders and instead manage risk by operating with a small position. This strategy is based on the characteristics of a consolidating market: small price fluctuations and unclear direction. In a trending market, a stop-loss becomes an effective risk management tool, helping traders control risk and avoid significant losses due to large market fluctuations. The forex market is unique in its long periods of consolidation, which poses greater challenges for retail traders with small capital. By holding a small position, traders can reduce risk to a certain extent, but they still need to overcome human weaknesses to achieve long-term, stable profits in the market.

In the forex two-way trading market, the formation of a trader's unique trading model doesn't rely on external indoctrination or simple imitation. Instead, it stems from continuous trial and error, summarization, and iteration through long-term market practice. Ultimately, through independent decision-making, it solidifies into a trading framework that adapts to their individual cognitive system, risk appetite, and operating habits.

The core value of this model lies in its "personalized adaptability"—there is no universal "optimal model" in the market. Only a "proprietary system" that traders have personally verified and can achieve stable decision-making while maintaining manageable risk can be developed. This process cannot be directly replaced by external instruction; it must rely on the trader's own deep market understanding and practical experience.
From the essence of forex trading technology, various technical analysis tools, indicator systems, and strategy logic are publicly available market knowledge resources. Their value does not stem from "information scarcity" but rather from the trader's deep understanding of the core technology and consistent execution. Most traders misjudge the application of technology. The core issue lies in a superficial understanding of the technical logic—they only master basic operations like setting indicator parameters and identifying patterns, but fail to grasp the underlying market supply and demand, capital flows, and the long-short game logic reflected by the technology. This leads to an inability to flexibly adapt technical tools to market changes in actual trading, ultimately resulting in "implementation distortion," reducing them to formalized operational procedures rather than effective support for decision-making. As the market consensus says, "It's easy to talk about it on paper, but difficult to put it into practice." The value of technology can only be realized through deep integration with market practice. Technical knowledge divorced from practice is essentially just fragmented theoretical knowledge.
More importantly, forex trading is essentially a "skill" that requires long-term training, not a discipline that can be mastered simply through the accumulation of knowledge. The core difference between skills and knowledge is that knowledge focuses on "cognitive understanding," while skills emphasize "practical proficiency and reflexive decision-making." The development of any skill requires long-term, systematic, and deliberate training, and forex trading is no exception. Trading skills that aren't honed through continuous market practice remain merely theoretical, unable to be transformed into practical capabilities for responding to complex market fluctuations. This principle aligns closely with the logic behind skill development in other fields: improving swimming skills stems from continuous in-water training, not simply learning swimming theory; improving piano playing relies on daily fingering practice, not just mastering music theory; becoming proficient in a language requires long-term, contextualized communication, not just grammatical memorization; and improving an athlete's competitive level requires systematic physical and technical training.
Similarly, the development of forex trading skills requires extensive real-time (or high-quality simulated) trading practice. By repeatedly responding to market fluctuations, handling unexpected market conditions, and correcting decision-making errors, one gradually develops a stable trading rhythm, instinctive risk control, and efficient decision-making, ultimately achieving the qualitative transformation from "theoretical knowledge" to "practical skills."

In the forex two-way trading market, disagreements among traders regarding stop-loss strategies fundamentally stem from differences in perceptions formed by past trading experience.

---

Some traders resist setting stop-loss orders. The core reason is that they've repeatedly experienced situations where the market reversed immediately after the stop-loss was triggered. Executing the stop-loss order not only failed to mitigate risk but also missed out on potential profit opportunities. This negative experience has solidified their aversion to stop-loss orders. Conversely, traders who firmly adhere to stop-loss strategies often have experienced the serious consequences of not setting stop-loss orders: either their accounts were wiped out due to a one-sided market movement, or they were trapped in a deep position due to mounting losses. These painful lessons have led them to view stop-loss orders as a core risk management tool.
From the perspective of trading itself, short-term forex trading with a heavy position and no stop-loss is essentially a "probabilistic game," differing only in the magnitude of the game relative to the size of the risk exposure. While seemingly active trading, it's actually equivalent to speculative behavior that abandons risk management. It's important to understand that one of the core characteristics of the financial market is uncertainty. All trading logic is based on probability, and the only certainty is the unpredictability of market trends. The core value of a stop-loss strategy is to hedge against this inherent uncertainty by setting a risk tolerance limit, preventing losses from a single trade from exceeding the account's capacity.
It's particularly important to note that forex currency pairs often exhibit a high degree of consolidation, with prices fluctuating repeatedly within a specific range. This market condition exacerbates the risks of short-term, heavy-weight trading: First, the limited room for price fluctuations in a consolidating market makes it difficult to generate sufficient profit margins to cover the costs and risks of heavy-weight trading. Second, frequent range-bound fluctuations easily trigger stop-loss orders, leading to a passive situation of "repeated stop-losses" and continuously eroding account funds.
Based on this, experienced long-term forex traders generally adopt a "light position layout + trend following" strategy framework. The core principle is to minimize the impact of a single position on the account by operating with a light position, while gradually deploying multiple positions in line with the macro trend. This approach effectively mitigates the risk of repeated stop-loss orders during a consolidating market, while also allowing the synergistic effect of multiple positions to fully capture trend-driven profits when a trend emerges, achieving a long-term balance between risk and return.
It should be emphasized that "highly consolidating investment products are not suitable for traditional stop-loss orders" is a fundamental principle in forex trading. This does not negate the necessity of stop-loss orders, but rather, because price fluctuations in a consolidating market are more random, making traditional fixed stop-loss orders highly susceptible to false breakouts, making them victims of market volatility. In such situations, it is even more important to integrate tools such as position management and trend filtering to build a risk control system tailored to consolidating markets, rather than simply relying on fixed stop-loss orders.
