Even I don’t believe in any kind of superstitions.

155

No, I do not believe in superstitions. My dedication and knowledge are most important and this is what matters to me.

I don’t have any. And people who are superstitious will always see their superstition being true. Because our subconscious mind is always looking for clues to prove that our beliefs and thoughts are right. It does not look at the logic part. So, that is why we often have a bad trading day when we start trading while we are having a bad day in general. Our mind is a powerful tool but it can make our life worse if it goes out of control. And that is why a trader should work on emotional control.

Why is this thread so hilarious :rofl: I am just superstitious about what I wear while trading :joy: I only wear black when I am trading. Well, 90% of my clothes are black only. And I noticed whenever I trade wearing bright colored clothes, it does not end well. I think it is also about feeling confident while trading :blush:
