Extract Trading-Literature Entities

Profile: {{ macros.profile }}

Extract reusable infospace entities from the source chunk. Return one Markdown bundle where each entity starts with # Entity Title and has a ## Definition section, plus a ## Category line drawn from the list below. Add ## Context and ## Source Evidence when the chunk gives enough material; leave them out rather than inventing detail.

Allowed categories (use exactly one per entity):

• trader — a named operator, broker, manipulator, or counter-party
• market — a market, exchange, pit, or named instrument family (e.g. the New York Stock Exchange, the cotton market, the bucket-shop circuit)
• strategy — a named tactic, system, or recurring playbook (e.g. pyramiding, scale buying, tape reading)
• error — a recurring mistake, anti-pattern, or losing habit
• psychological_pattern — a named cognitive or emotional habit that drives decisions (e.g. tip-following, hope-against-evidence)
• institution — a firm, regulator, news organisation, or social venue
• instrument — a specific security, commodity, or contract
• evidence_bearing_claim — a concrete operator-level claim the text asserts and partially supports (e.g. "amateurs buy on tips, pros buy on tape"); preserve the supporting evidence in the body

Prefer entities that will recur across chapters. Avoid fictionalised people whose role is purely narrative colour. Avoid wrapping a single trade as an entity unless the trade is itself a teachable case.
