Every market is a game. Every participant has a strategy. Most strategies lose. Game theory is the mathematics of why — and the only honest framework for what happens next.
No player can improve their outcome by unilaterally changing strategy. Markets find Nash equilibria constantly. Most traders don't know they're already in one.
In the TO/TOGT framework, F is the commitment point — the moment at which rank-1 Jacobian loss occurs and the trajectory becomes irreversible. Every trade entry is an F event.
A strategy that is optimal regardless of what others do. Holding THEORY is not a dominant strategy. That's the point. Dominant strategies have no upside.
Game theory produces agents that optimize for themselves. Self-optimizing agents are incompatible with central planning. The mathematics is subversive by construction.
