The Market is a Mirror (The Five Aggregates)
When the price moves, your mind reacts with five flows, or "Aggregates". The market is designed to hijack them:
1. Form (Body): Price volatility ➡️ tight chest, quickened pulse.
2. Feeling (Sensation): Price pumps ➡️ joy/greed. Price dips ➡️ pain/regret.
3. Perception (Thought): Instant pop-ups like #FOMO ("I missed out") or #FUD ("This is going to zero").
4. Volition (Action): Impulsive "Buy High" (chasing) or "Sell Low" (panic) driven by feeling/thought.
5. Consciousness (Awareness): Being swept away by the never-ending flood of market news and social media chatter.
