Are You a Superstitious Trader? Take the Quiz and Find Out!

 

When it comes to the stock market, most traders swear by strategy, discipline, and cold, hard data.

But if we’re being honest… some of us also have a “lucky” mug, a pre-market ritual, or a rule about never wearing red on a trading day.

So—are you a purely rational realist, a balanced believer, or the kind of trader who won’t hit “buy” until your favorite playlist is on and your good-luck charm is in your pocket?
Let’s find out.

How to Play

Answer each question honestly. 
At the end, we’ll reveal your superstition score.

Are You a Superstitious Trader? 🕯📈

Answer honestly. Pick one option per question. Then hit See My Result.

1) It’s the morning of a big market day. Do you…

Wear your lucky shirt, magic mug, and light a pre-market candle. Stick to normal prep but avoid “bad luck” habits. Boot charts, check data, get to work—no rituals needed.

2) Your first trade is green. What’s next?

Sign of a lucky streak—ride it! Feel good but stay cautious. One trade doesn’t decide the day. Stick to plan.

3) The market dips right after you buy. Do you…

Blame skipping your lucky ritual. Joke about “karma” and re-check setup. Manage risk per rules (stop/exit/adjust).

4) A buddy offers to “share” their winning streak. You…

Accept immediately. Luck by osmosis! Laugh and maybe accept—why not? Thank them and rely on your skill.

5) It’s Friday the 13th and you’re sizing up a big trade. You…

Size down or skip—don’t tempt fate. Extra careful; take it only if perfect. It’s just another trading day.

6) Do you believe certain tickers are “lucky” for you?

Absolutely—some always pay me. Favorites yes, but mostly familiarity. A ticker is a ticker. It’s the setup.

7) Ever knock on wood after saying “Best trade yet”?

All the time—jinx insurance. Sometimes, for fun. Nope, not my style.

Final Word

Whether you believe in lucky charms or think they belong in fairy tales, every trader has their quirks. The key is knowing whether they help you stay disciplined or just distract you from the real signals.

So—how did you score?
And be honest… are you really going to wear that “lucky” hoodie tomorrow, or was that just a coincidence?
