In two-way trading in forex investment, forex traders widely use candlestick patterns as an important tool for investment decision-making.

---

However, many traders fall into a cognitive trap due to rigid reliance on candlestick patterns, ultimately suffering huge losses. In fact, the candlestick pattern itself is not the root of the problem; rather, it is the trader's misunderstanding and improper application that leads to losses.
In two-way trading in the forex market, traders need to understand that when the overall trend is upward, any downward candlestick pattern may be a trap that misleads traders into making incorrect selling decisions; conversely, when the overall trend is downward, any upward candlestick pattern may be a trap that induces traders to make incorrect buying decisions. Furthermore, most forex traders have relatively limited funds and tend to use candlestick patterns for short-term trading. This trading style further exacerbates the problem of making hasty and incorrect selling decisions during an uptrend due to falling candlestick patterns, and hastily making incorrect buying decisions during a downtrend due to rising candlestick patterns. This is precisely why most forex traders become contrarian traders and consistently lose money.
Only when forex traders truly understand the potential misleading nature of candlestick patterns can they escape the cycle of losses and embark on a truly meaningful investment journey. Before that, traders often linger in flawed concepts. Therefore, after recognizing this problem, traders should adopt a strategy of small positions and long-term holdings, avoiding frequent short-term trading, thus truly embarking on the right path of investing.

In the two-way trading scenario of the forex market, some traders choose to set their pending orders at a price far removed from the current market price. This seemingly "unconventional" operation is essentially based on the accurate prediction of opportunities arising from extreme market volatility—its core objective is to capture sudden, highly volatile market moments such as "flash crashes."

---

Such market movements are often triggered by unexpected factors such as sudden changes in macroeconomic policies, the release of major data, or a sudden tightening of liquidity. Prices can fluctuate dramatically in a short period, far exceeding normal volatility. By setting pending orders at a distant location in advance, traders can overcome the limitations of manual monitoring and automatically execute trades when the market conditions are met, thus potentially seizing these rare opportunities that are difficult to capture through immediate manual operation. It is important to note that this pending order strategy is not about blindly pursuing high-risk returns, but rather based on a deep understanding of the market's potential risks and opportunities. It is an important means for traders to balance risk and return and improve their ability to cope with extreme market conditions. In specific forex two-way trading, the operational logic of placing buy orders at a distance varies depending on the trend direction and the prevailing market trend. In a clear uptrend, the overall market movement is primarily driven by rising prices. However, during the continuation of the trend, sudden negative factors may trigger extreme pullbacks, such as sharp drops. While these pullbacks contradict the trend direction, they present short-term high-yield trading opportunities. Manual real-time judgment and execution are often insufficient to accurately capture these opportunities. On the one hand, market crashes can occur extremely quickly, and manual orders may miss the optimal entry point. On the other hand, traders, influenced by trend-following inertia, easily overlook the possibility of extreme pullbacks, leading to delayed responses. Placing buy orders at a low level, far from the current price, solves this problem: when the market experiences an unexpected plunge and hits the order price, the trading instruction is automatically executed, allowing traders to enter at a lower cost and profit from the subsequent trend reversal. This opportunity capture based on order placement techniques is far more timely and reliable than manual operation.
In contrast, in a downtrend in forex trading, market prices primarily move downwards. However, sudden positive news can trigger extreme rebounds, such as "surges." These rebounds, while also abnormal fluctuations within the trend, provide traders with short-term shorting opportunities. Similar to sharp drops in an uptrend, surges are characterized by their suddenness and short duration, making it difficult for manual traders to respond promptly—either missing entry opportunities due to failure to quickly identify rebound signals, or getting trapped at high levels due to excessive chasing of the rally. In this situation, placing sell orders at a high price, far from the current price, allows traders to capitalize on opportunities through automated trading mechanisms: when the market surges and touches the order price, the sell order automatically takes effect, enabling traders to lock in short positions at the rebound high and subsequently profit as the trend reverses. The core advantage of this pending order strategy lies in its ability to eliminate the emotional interference and reaction delays of manual trading, allowing for a more rational and efficient response to extreme market conditions.
From the perspective of a trader's developmental stage, the distance between the pending order price and the current price in forex two-way trading often reflects a trader's experience and professionalism. For beginners or market novices, due to a lack of deep understanding of market fluctuation patterns and insufficient respect for the risks of extreme market conditions, they tend to set their pending orders close to the current price. This approach, while seemingly "safe," actually exposes their limitations in judging market trends and volatility: on the one hand, close-range pending orders are easily triggered by normal market fluctuations, leading to frequent trading, increased transaction costs, and the risk of misjudgment; on the other hand, these traders often lack the awareness to anticipate extreme market conditions and struggle to cope with unexpected situations through pending order strategies, ultimately becoming passive in market fluctuations. However, as traders gradually become experienced or skilled, with the accumulation of trading experience and a deeper understanding of the market, their pending order skills gradually reach a level of mastery, and setting pending orders far from the current price becomes the norm. This transformation doesn't stem from deliberate instruction, but rather is the inevitable result of long-term market practice. Only by personally experiencing the profit opportunities and losses brought by extreme market conditions can one truly understand the strategic significance of long-distance pending orders: it's not just a tool for dealing with extreme market conditions, but also a demonstration of respect for market uncertainty and precise control over the risk-reward ratio. In fact, even if experienced traders teach long-distance pending order strategies to novices, if the novices haven't experienced the practical trials of relevant market conditions, they will find it difficult to truly understand and master this technique. Only experience accumulated through practice allows traders to deeply understand the market logic behind pending order prices, thereby internalizing the technique into their own trading habits.

In the forex two-way trading market, a trader's understanding of market rules, the essence of trading, and the truth of investment is often built on continuous practice and in-depth accumulation of knowledge.

Without repeated practical experience, traders struggle to extract stable trading patterns from complex and ever-changing market fluctuations. Without mastering trading processes and analytical tools, they cannot penetrate market appearances to grasp the core essence of trading. Furthermore, without long-term dedication to market research, strategy refinement, and experience accumulation, it's even more difficult to understand the underlying logic and market truths behind forex trading.
From the perspective of developing trading habits, forex traders' behavioral patterns and thinking also need to be shaped through repeated practice. In the initial stages, if traders fail to develop the awareness and action of repetitive operation, it's difficult to establish standardized trading habits. Without fixed trading habits as support, the brain cannot form deep memories and conditioned reflexes for effective trading decisions and risk control methods, leading to disordered trading behavior and hindering substantial skill improvement. Therefore, traders need to be guided by a repetitive trading mindset, integrating trading learning into daily practice, and gradually cultivating scientific trading habits through continuous, repeated learning and practice. In this process, traders' analytical skills, decision-making efficiency, and risk management levels will improve subtly. Often, only after reaching a certain stage will they be pleasantly surprised to find that they have acquired the core qualities of an excellent trader; this growth even exceeds their own expectations.
In summary, repeated practice and skillful operation are two indispensable pillars on the path to becoming a forex trader. Without repetition, it is difficult to understand the inner workings of forex investment; without skill, it is impossible to master the core principles of forex trading. Together, they constitute the key advancement path for traders from beginner to expert.

In the two-way trading scenario of forex investment, traders often face cognitive biases in judging market trends. A typical example is misjudging a phased rebound during a downtrend as a trend reversal signal, or incorrectly identifying a short-term pullback during an uptrend as the beginning of a trend reversal. This judgment bias often leads to subsequent trading decisions being out of sync with the actual market movement, thereby increasing operational risks.

In the two-way trading field of forex investment, the vast majority of participants are investors with scarce funds. This group has relatively limited capital and risk tolerance. Influenced by the scarcity of funds, especially novices with insufficient trading experience, they often have an idealized trading expectation, hoping to accurately capture the bottom and top of the market, expecting to enter the market at the moment when a major trend reversal is about to occur, thereby obtaining a one-time high return by taking advantage of the subsequent extension of the major trend, achieving a one-time investment goal. However, among experienced forex investors, there's a general consensus: once a major trend forms in the forex market, it exhibits strong continuity and doesn't suddenly reverse without warning. Trend changes often require a series of signal accumulations and changes in the market environment. This idealized expectation of bottom-fishing and top-picking is difficult to achieve in actual market operations.
From the perspective of working backward from market results, we can explain why the vast majority of forex traders ultimately lose money. The core reason is that most traders' operational logic contradicts the market trend, constituting typical contrarian trading. Simultaneously, these traders generally prefer short-term trading, focusing on capturing extreme market points (i.e., bottoms and tops). This "contrarian + short-term bottom-fishing and top-picking" trading model amplifies the risks of market volatility and reduces the probability of correctly identifying the trend. With these two factors combined, losses become a common outcome for this group.
This phenomenon constitutes a normal occurrence in the foreign exchange trading market: waves of investors with limited funds enter the market with profit expectations, only to leave after a period of trading due to unavoidable losses; subsequently, a new wave of investors with similar expectations enters the market, and this cycle repeats, resulting in a cyclical turnover of market participants.
However, in recent decades, the market situation has changed somewhat. With the gradual popularization of market knowledge, more and more investors with limited funds have begun to recognize the market truth that "buying low and selling high is unlikely to be profitable," and have made a more rational assessment of their own ability and risk tolerance in foreign exchange trading. This has led to a significant decrease in their willingness to participate in foreign exchange investment. The decline in investor participation has directly resulted in foreign exchange investment no longer being as popular as before, and the number of new market participants has continued to decrease. The activity and trend fluctuations of the foreign exchange market depend to some extent on the capital flow and trading behavior brought by new entrants (especially inexperienced, loss-making traders). When these "fresh blood" of loss-making traders cease to inject liquidity into the market, the market loses its key driving force for significant trend fluctuations, ultimately exhibiting an extremely calm state, even describable as "stagnant water."

In the two-way trading field of forex investment, it is clearly untrue for forex traders who claim to have never experienced failure.

---

In fact, some forex traders in the market often create a false image of invincibility by selling courses or software; however, this claim is untenable. Just as in traditional social life, only those who have suffered injustice can truly understand the value of justice, forex traders must also experience failure to truly grasp the meaning of success. In reality, almost no investor has never experienced failure. Without experiencing failure, one cannot understand the value of success and might even fabricate lies to cover up their shortcomings.
In the two-way trading of forex investment, investors inevitably encounter moments of bad luck. It is these setbacks that make investors realize the important role probability and opportunity play in life. They gradually understand that their success is not entirely determined by fate, and the failures of others are not to be taken for granted. When forex traders occasionally experience failure, other traders may gloat, but in such situations, traders should be more aware of the importance of maintaining composure and a competitive spirit. However, forex investment is inherently a relatively solitary activity. When traders choose to remain silent and not disclose their failures, usually no one will know. Even their forex brokers may not have the time to pay attention to these failures, let alone publicize them.
Only when forex traders have truly experienced the pain of failure can they empathize and develop compassion and understanding for the failures of others. This experience not only contributes to their personal growth but also enables them to demonstrate greater empathy and understanding when facing the difficulties of others.
