Thinking About the Market Through the Philosophy of Ramadan
Thinking about the market through the philosophy of Ramadan (Ramadan) provides a perspective that goes beyond pure technical analysis. It reflects the market as a mirror of human nature, desires, patience, and collective consciousness, rather than just a machine for ups and downs. The core practices of Ramadan—fasting (Sawm), self-discipline, reflection (Tafakkur), generosity (Zakat/Sadaqah), and reliance on Allah (Tawakkul)—can all be directly mapped to the psychology and strategy of trading and investing.
