In the two-way trading mechanism of forex investment, investors especially need a valuable quality—the ability to listen to unpleasant opinions.

---

Admittedly, harsh or even unpleasant market commentary often contradicts one's own investment direction, inevitably causing initial resistance. However, it is precisely these "unpleasant" truths that often contain a clear insight into the essence of the market, potentially helping to avoid potential losses, or even turn crisis into opportunity and risk into profit.
In the information-saturated online world, investors inevitably encounter various sharp opinions about the forex market, including many blunt truths that directly address the harsh realities of the market. Although such opinions may contradict their existing judgments, causing emotional discomfort, if examined with a rational eye and accepted with an open mind, their deeper value is not difficult to discover.
When everyone is following the crowd and emotions are running high, occasional calm voices pouring cold water on the situation are not only harmless but also help to dispel confusion and correct cognitive biases. This contrarian reminder acts as a warning bell, prompting investors to remain cautious amidst the noise and maintain clarity amidst the frenzy, thus navigating the volatile foreign exchange market with stability and long-term success.

In the two-way trading mechanism of forex investment, investors have the opportunity to profit as long as they accurately judge the market direction and firmly hold their positions.

This mechanism gives traders the possibility of profiting regardless of market fluctuations; the key lies in grasping the trend and maintaining composure in holding positions.
In contrast, the operational logic of major funds in the stock market is more complex. The act of major funds selling stocks is not always driven by a genuine intention to reduce holdings; often it is merely a strategic "market manipulation"—creating short-term price fluctuations to lower the stock price and reduce their own holding costs, thus creating more favorable conditions for subsequent price increases. In this process, major funds and retail investors form a natural adversarial relationship. What major market players particularly fear are retail investors who are calm, collected, and operate independently: once they buy in, they are not swayed by short-term fluctuations, and no matter how intense the shakeout tactics, they hold onto their positions and act at their own pace. Even so, when major players have completed their shakeout and are determined to launch the main upward wave, even if some retail investors who haven't been shaken out remain holding positions, the major players will not change their established upward plan because of the existence of a few individual investors. Therefore, if retail investors can recognize and follow this trend, they can potentially ride the wave of the market driven by major players and obtain considerable profits.
In the forex market, the real opponent for retail investors is not other market participants, but forex brokers who act as market makers. These institutions are allowed to legally bet against their clients within the regulatory framework. Their typical practice is to internally hedge retail investors' trading orders, rather than actually transmitting them to the international market. In other words, when retail investors profit, the brokers correspondingly bear the losses. If a trader maintains a consistently profitable position, especially with large sums of money such as hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, the potential risk to the broker will increase significantly. To mitigate such risks, most forex brokers employ implicit restrictions: either delaying deposits under the guise of account compliance reviews or requiring clients to provide extremely stringent proof of funds. Faced with these obstacles, many high-net-worth traders are ultimately forced to abandon their positions. This is the fundamental reason why forex brokers globally generally adopt a restrictive, avoidant, or even rejecting attitude towards high-profit clients—what they are guarding against is not market uncertainty, but rather those traders who truly possess consistent profitability.

When facing pressure from high-net-worth clients, forex brokers typically employ a series of strategic, compliant, and operational measures to balance risk control, capital constraints, and commercial interests. These practices stem from the nature of their business model and are also profoundly influenced by the regulatory environment and market structure.

Firstly, from a business model perspective, many retail forex brokers operate using a "market maker" or "B-Book" model. Under this model, clients' trading profits and losses directly translate into the broker's own profit and loss. When large-capital clients consistently profit and hold substantial positions, brokers face significant counterparty risk—the more the client earns, the greater the potential loss for the broker. To mitigate this asymmetric risk exposure, brokers often restrict such clients' trading privileges, such as by reducing leverage, limiting tradable instruments, delaying order execution, or even suspending deposits or new positions.
Secondly, within the compliance and risk control framework, brokers frequently use Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements to rigorously scrutinize the source of large sums of money. While such scrutiny is a common requirement in global financial regulation, in practice, some brokers may use this to extend review periods and raise verification thresholds, effectively discouraging high-potential large clients. This practice, though not publicly acknowledged, creates a tacit "client screening mechanism" within the industry: welcoming small-scale, high-frequency, and emotionally driven retail investors, while remaining wary or even rejecting rational, stable, and systematically capable large-capital clients.
Furthermore, even though some brokers adopt "no-dealing-desk" (NDD) models such as STP (Straight Through Processing) or ECN (Electronic Communication Network), which theoretically connect client orders directly to liquidity providers and seem to eliminate conflicts of interest, they still bear credit risk, settlement risk, and liquidity matching pressure. When a large client's single transaction size far exceeds the tolerance threshold of their partner bank or LP (Liquidity Provider), the broker may refuse to accept the order due to an inability to effectively hedge, or require the client to split the trade or accept worse quotes, thereby indirectly suppressing the activity of large funds.
At a deeper level, the infrastructure of the retail forex market is primarily geared towards serving small and medium-sized investors; its technology systems, risk control models, and capital allocation are not tailored to institutional funds. Therefore, most retail brokers lack the capacity and willingness to handle truly large-scale clients. This also explains why professional institutional investors typically choose to trade directly through the interbank market or through prime brokers, rather than relying on retail forex platforms aimed at the general public.
In summary, the core logic behind forex brokers' handling of pressure from large-capital clients lies in prioritizing risk aversion over client growth. Between profit, compliance, and survival, they tend to exclude high-risk, high-profit-potential clients from their business ecosystem through institutional barriers, operational restrictions, and structural screening, thereby maintaining the stability and sustainability of their business model.

In the two-way trading mechanism of forex investment, the true mark of a trader's maturity does not stem from an obsessive pursuit of profit, but from the ability to calmly face, rationally accept, and properly handle the psychological impact of significant losses.

This psychological stability and maturity, seemingly simple, actually constitutes the most profound and crucial aspect of the art of trading. The market is constantly changing, and no one can accurately predict the upper limit of final profits, but every trader can independently control the lower limit of risk through strict discipline—the most core principle of which is: always strictly implement stop-loss orders and abandon any侥幸心理 (a mentality of taking chances).
When a trader's current position causes unease or anxiety, it's often a warning signal from the market. At this point, decisively reducing or even closing positions is not an act of cowardice, but rather a respect for one's own trading rhythm and psychological resilience. Only by adjusting positions to a "comfort zone" that brings inner peace can one maintain clear judgment in a volatile market and achieve a long-term, stable trading career. It's crucial to understand that the key to long-term success lies not in short-term profits or losses, but in mental peace and consistent strategy.
Furthermore, excessive focus on short-term profits is often counterproductive. The more fixated on gains, the more easily one deviates from their established strategy under emotional influence. Truly mature traders prioritize adherence to principles and risk control, replacing greed and fear with calm restraint, and random actions with systematic thinking. Only in this way can one navigate the uncertain forex market steadily and gradually transform into a professional investor with rationality, discipline, and resilience.

In the market ecosystem of two-way forex trading, a question worthy of in-depth discussion arises: if all forex investors choose a long-term investment model, will it shake the market's inherent 80/20 rule or even the 90/10 rule?

---

To answer this question, we need to analyze it from multiple dimensions, including the core logic of long-term investment, the practical conditions and human constraints of investors, and the differentiated characteristics of the definition of long-term investment.
From the core profit logic of long-term forex investment, carry trades are an important component of long-term strategies. Their core returns stem from the continuous accumulation of overnight interest rate spreads. This wealth-growth model has a significant time dependence; only through long-term holding, allowing the interest rate spread to continuously accumulate over time, can a large-scale wealth effect gradually emerge. However, the implementation of this strategy has stringent prerequisites, namely, it requires sufficient capital as support. The reality is that the vast majority of forex investors lack the financial strength for long-term carry trades. Even those who fully understand the potential power of long-term carry trades are often unable to implement them due to the financial threshold, fundamentally preventing long-term carry trade strategies from becoming a mainstream market choice.
Further examining the subjective abilities and human nature of investors, long-term investment in forex trading is not suitable for all market participants. Long-term trading requires not only accurate market analysis but also exceptional patience and unwavering execution—undoubtedly an extreme test of human nature. Most investors struggle to overcome this psychological barrier, failing to consistently adhere to their long-term strategy and ultimately giving up halfway. This is evidenced by the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule)—20% of investors consistently earn 80% of the market's returns. The continued existence of this ironclad rule precisely illustrates that success in long-term trading is not easy. Even if a long-term strategy is theoretically feasible, it cannot change the reality that most investors struggle to profit.
More importantly, even if most investors subjectively choose long-term investing, their definitions of "long-term" vary significantly, forming a diverse spectrum encompassing periods of days, weeks, months, and even years. This difference in definition directly leads to variations in core trading elements such as holding periods, entry timing, and profit-taking/stop-loss criteria, even among investors with a long-term investment strategy. The overlap in strategies is extremely low, making it difficult to form a unified market force. Meanwhile, while long-term trading theoretically has a high success rate, the limited capital of the majority of retail investors often disrupts their long-term investment plans. Many retail investors initially enter the market with the intention of long-term investing, but in actual trading, pressure from liquidity and short-term market fluctuations often unconsciously transform long-term holdings into short-term trading or small-swing operations, ultimately falling into the irrational trading trap of chasing highs and selling lows.
This diversity in individual trading behavior means that even with a unified trading system in the market, the results will vary greatly depending on the investor's experience. The same trading logic might yield thousands of different outcomes in the hands of 100 investors. This dispersion of trading behavior not only makes it difficult for long-term investments to form a unified market trend, but also fundamentally eliminates concerns about "system failure caused by multiple people using the same trading system." It further confirms the stubbornness of the Pareto principle: regardless of the trading period chosen by investors, differences in financial strength, professional ability, and personal qualities will always exist. This also means that the market's profit structure will not fundamentally change simply because most people choose long-term investment.
