In the field of forex trading, the ultimate focus of traders' exploration should be psychology, not philosophy. This conclusion stems from the practical nature of trading: the core of trading is "dynamic market decision-making," and the quality of these decisions directly depends on mastering one's own psychological principles. While philosophical speculation can provide a cognitive perspective, it has little direct impact on practical operations.

---

A common market perception is that "investing ultimately lies in philosophy." Many well-known speculators often label themselves "philosophers," leading to the deeply held impression that successful traders must be philosophers. However, discerning traders view the "philosophical label" of some speculators as more of a deliberate image, inherently motivated by a desire for fame. They elevate their trading insights to a philosophical level, which, while enhancing their personal influence, obscures the practical nature of trading. In reality, trading doesn't require complex philosophical speculation; rather, it requires a precise grasp of decision-making psychology. For example, how to overcome the stubborn tendency to hold onto losses caused by loss aversion, and how to curb overtrading driven by greed. These issues rely on psychological principles, not philosophical theories.
From a practical perspective, "investment and trading psychology is far more important than investment and trading theory." While investment and trading theories (such as technical analysis methods and market prediction models) can provide a logical framework for trading, in practice, their implementation is often dictated by psychological states. Even if one possesses a comprehensive trading theory, if one cannot control hesitation when entering a position, anxiety when holding a position, and impulsiveness when closing a position, one will still find themselves in the dilemma of "understanding the theory but not making money." Investment and trading psychology, on the other hand, can directly impact the "decision-making and execution" phase: by understanding the impact of psychological biases (such as anchoring and herd mentality) on trading, it helps traders establish a stable mindset and ensure the effective implementation of theoretical strategies. Its impact on trading results is second only to the core factor of "capital size"—after all, capital size determines risk tolerance and position allocation, while psychology determines whether a strategy can be maximized within a given capital size.
More importantly, the essence of investment and trading is "real-world testing": any theory must be validated in the market to demonstrate its value. Theory divorced from practical application is meaningless. Investment and trading psychology, however, serves as the "bridge connecting theory and practice"—it allows traders to maintain rationality amid market fluctuations, prevents psychological fluctuations from distorting strategies, and ultimately achieves the transformation of theoretical understanding into practical benefits. In contrast, philosophy focuses on the macroscopic nature of trading and market dynamics. While it can enhance traders' cognitive framework, it cannot directly address the psychological challenges inherent in specific operations, such as "when to enter a position, how to set a stop-loss, and how to take a profit." Therefore, it cannot be the ultimate direction of trading exploration.
In summary, the ultimate goal of forex trading lies in psychology: it's not only a more crucial support than trading theory in actual trading, but also, beyond capital size, a core factor that determines trading results. To break through bottlenecks, traders should focus on mastering psychological principles rather than blindly pursuing philosophical labels.

In two-way forex trading, traders need to deeply understand the positive effects of sideways trading and pullbacks. While these market phenomena may pose challenges in the short term, in the long term, they are crucial for trader growth and the health of the market.

In traditional real life, many highly successful individuals have experienced difficult life experiences. While these hardships were difficult, they ultimately helped them achieve a turning point in their lives and enter a more successful period. While the trials may be brief, the subsequent success is often more enduring. This experience not only shaped their resilience but also prepared them to face future challenges with greater composure.
However, in forex trading, the situation differs from life experience. Major market extensions are rare, while periods of sideways movement and pullbacks are relatively prolonged. This market characteristic makes it difficult for many traders to hold positions for the long term. Long-term, unresolved losses not only test a trader's patience but also place extreme demands on their mental endurance. Most people, unable to withstand this constant ordeal, ultimately give up.
From another perspective, the existence of sideways movement and pullbacks actually protects a small number of profitable and successful traders with clear understanding and conviction. These market phenomena make it difficult for most unsuccessful traders to stick to their trading systems, hindering their ability to join the ranks of profitable traders. If the market were free of sideways movement and dominated by major trend extensions, anyone could easily follow the trend and make significant profits. In this scenario, the market would be unable to filter out losers, and without losers, there would be no winners. Because the forex market is essentially a counter-party system, profits and losses are interdependent.
Thus, sideways trading and pullbacks are not only natural market phenomena but also important mechanisms for the market to screen traders. They not only test a trader's mental fortitude and trading strategies, but also encourage continuous learning and growth. By understanding and accepting these market phenomena, traders can better manage their emotions, optimize their trading strategies, and achieve stable profits in a complex market environment. This deep understanding of market phenomena not only helps traders navigate short-term market fluctuations but also enables sustained growth and development in the long term.

In forex trading, traders can be categorized as "actively accepting" or "passively enduring." These two states directly reflect differences in their trading knowledge and mental maturity. Mature traders are those who proactively manage being trapped, while those who passively fall into a trap and are unable to accept it are immature traders.

Based on the trends in the forex market, even if traders accurately identify and follow the broad trend, the market will never advance in a straight line. Instead, it will slowly unfold through alternating periods of consolidation and trend pullbacks. This volatility means that even if a conservative strategy of "lightweight and diversified holdings" is employed, the account will inevitably experience repeated cycles of "floating losses" and "floating profits" during trading. This is not a sign of strategy failure, but rather an inevitable part of the trend.
For experienced traders, "actively being trapped" in the face of floating losses is essentially a matter of "rational acceptance based on cognition." They clearly understand that "short-term floating losses are a normal part of a trend" and that positions currently experiencing floating losses will convert into floating profits as the trend continues. Therefore, they are mentally prepared to "accept floating losses" before opening a position and remain fearless when faced with being trapped. This "active" approach is not passive acceptance, but rather a respect for market principles. It is a firm belief in the trend, while maintaining clear risk boundaries (such as setting stop-losses and controlling positions). They don't let short-term floating losses disrupt their trading rhythm. Instead, they use these periods to validate trend logic and build patience for subsequent profits.
In contrast, immature traders, facing floating losses, are "passively trapped" due to a lack of cognitive control over their emotions. These traders neither understand the market principle that floating losses are a normal trend nor anticipate the possibility of their positions experiencing profit and loss cycles. They simply expect "immediate profits" after opening a position. Once faced with floating losses, they passively accept them. Unprepared, fear quickly takes over. They either rush to stop losses, exiting the market prematurely and missing out on the trend, or stubbornly hold onto losses without setting a risk limit, ultimately falling into a vicious cycle of deepening losses and mental breakdown. The core of this "passivity" lies in a lack of understanding of market fluctuations and a loss of emotional control. Essentially, they haven't established a comprehensive trading logic and risk awareness system.
In short, being trapped in forex trading isn't inherently a risk signal. The key lies in whether the trader responds proactively or passively. Actively being trapped reflects a mature trader's "sound understanding and thorough preparation" and is essential for capturing profitable trends. Passively being trapped, on the other hand, reveals an immature trader's "lack of understanding and fragile mentality" and is a significant contributor to trading losses. Only by understanding the patterns of trend fluctuations and developing the mindset to accept losses can traders shift from passively being trapped to proactively responding, gradually becoming mature.

In two-way forex trading, traders need to be fully committed, but never put all their assets on the line. Maintaining this balance is one of the keys to successful trading.

Full commitment means conducting in-depth market research, developing a sound trading strategy, and maintaining a close eye on market dynamics. However, this doesn't mean traders should risk all their capital. Proper money management is crucial for protecting traders from significant losses.
In forex trading, when traders can't afford to lose, they're more likely to fail. This reflects a psychological and mindset issue. When traders have a low tolerance for losses, they may make impulsive decisions in the face of market fluctuations, such as prematurely stopping losses or over-investing, exacerbating losses. This mindset not only affects their decision-making but can also lead to a loss of confidence in the market, ultimately falling into a vicious cycle.
Many traders, after years of studying trading techniques, may feel they have mastered all the necessary knowledge. However, when their mental toughness fails to catch up, they discover that while technical skills are relatively simple, the real challenge lies in overcoming the psychological and mindset issues involved. While learning trading techniques is an ongoing process, honing one's mental toughness is more complex and lengthy. Traders need to continuously learn through practice how to manage their emotions, overcome greed and fear, and maintain calm and rationality. Cultivating these mental qualities is often more challenging than learning the technical skills.
A deeper exploration of investment and trading techniques ultimately leads to candlestick chart analysis, and a deeper understanding of candlestick chart analysis ultimately leads back to price action itself. However, the ultimate interpretation of price action still relies on the trader's humanity. A trader's humanity, including their psychology and mindset, is the most fundamental factor influencing their trading decisions. Human flaws, such as greed, fear, and impulsiveness, are the greatest challenges traders face in the market. These flaws are not only difficult to overcome but can also lead to poor decisions at critical moments.
Therefore, in the two-way trading of forex, traders need to strike a balance between technical learning and psychological development. While fully committed to trading, they must manage their funds wisely and avoid excessive risk. When faced with losses, they must remain calm and rational, avoiding impulsive decisions caused by psychological pressure. Through continuous learning and practice, traders can gradually improve their psychological resilience and better cope with market uncertainty. Ultimately, the key to success lies not only in mastering the techniques, but also in a deep understanding and effective management of human nature.

In the world of forex trading, every true trader is a "financial practitioner," and even more so, a "forex ascetic." For them, trading has long transcended the realm of a "profit-making tool" and has become a silent practice of inward exploration and outward perception.

The core of this practice begins with the resonance of "calmness of mind" and "market perception." The fluctuations in the foreign exchange market are like the complicated affairs of the world. It is difficult to "concentrate" if your mind is not calm: if you are overwhelmed by short-term ups and downs, the market you see will only be a chaotic jump of numbers, and decision-making will become a vassal of emotions; only when your mind is clear and all distractions are gone can you penetrate the surface of the fluctuations and see the internal logic of the market operation - at this time, the trend will be as clear as a fingerprint. Every consolidation, retracement and trend extension can be in sync with the "order" of market laws. Traders can also make decisions that are in line with the trend in this "harmony between man and nature" perception.
Traders must cultivate three key principles to navigate the challenges of different market phases: When facing a pullback, one must have the resolve to decisively cut losses—not to cling to losses out of a sense of luck, nor to blindly trade out of fear. Instead, one must promptly correct mistakes within the pre-set risk limits to preserve strength for the next opportunity. When caught in a volatile market, one must possess the patience to endure loneliness. Understanding that sideways trading is an inevitable process of trend accumulation, one must resist the urge to seize elusive short-term opportunities and instead, while waiting, screen for entry signals that align with the system's logic. When encountering a significant trend extension, one must restrain greed. Avoid being blinded by the desire for excessive profits and, instead, follow the system's rules to maintain a steady pace of profit-taking to avoid the regret of profit-taking.
Advancing in practice requires a deep understanding of and self-acceptance of the trading system. Traders don't need to strive for perfect control of the system; they simply need to understand their system well enough—understanding its strengths and weaknesses, applicable scenarios, and risk limits—and their mindset will naturally stabilize. The saying "skill brings boldness" essentially means "deep understanding leads to a stable mindset." Most of the time, it's not a poor mindset that prevents profit, but rather a lack of understanding of the market and the system that leads to unstable profits, which in turn causes an imbalanced mindset. The more challenging practice lies in "actively filtering out market trends that don't suit you"—watching others profit from non-systemic opportunities while remaining true to your own trading logic and refraining from blindly following the crowd. This determination to "do what you should and don't do what you shouldn't" is the key to breaking through trading bottlenecks.
Ultimately, the path to trading enlightenment begins with "self-awareness" and ends with "self-acceptance." All technical learning, market analysis, and mental refinement are a process of deep cultivation through "practice makes perfect." Finding the "critical point of mental balance"—neither denying yourself due to losses nor becoming overconfident due to profits—is key to achieving success truly achieve the unity of cognition and action. This practice is never a confrontation with the market, but rather a dialogue with oneself. All external techniques and strategies ultimately return to the essence of "inward examination and self-improvement."
