Did you always have bad luck when trading stocks?
Fret not!
Tradings stocks relies not only skills, but also luck.
For some, they avoid trading stocks on the 13th of each month. Why? Because the number 13 is consider unlucky especially in the Western cultures. There are even hotels and offices that omit the 13th floor due to the fear of the number 13.
For others, they trade stocks on the 8th, 18th and 28th of each month. The number 8 is consider auspicious in the Chinese cultures, as it sounds similar to fa, which means to generate wealth.
Also, there are some who wear lucky amulet to protect and ward off bad luck when they trade stocks.
Maybe you have not find the right situation/arrangement to perform your lucky trade. It's ok. Just like the movie 'Finding Nemo', life is full of challenges and difficulties, but if you're determined enough, you will eventually overcome them and find your Nemo (Luck).
