What is position trading in forex and who uses it?

Position trading is long-term trend following, holding trades for weeks or months. Institutions align with monetary policy cycles—buying USD during Fed hiking cycles, for example. Retail traders rarely sustain such patience but can benefit from reducing noise. Benefits: low stress, fewer trades, alignment with fundamentals. Risks: large swings and need for bigger capital buffers. Position trading rewards those who think like investors, not speculators. It reflects the philosophy: “Be the market’s partner, not its opponent.”
