anyone else going to invest based on omens?
ive been researching Roman augury. some tips for everyone:
- even numbered days are unlucky
- the 14th is especially unlucky
- the entire month of February is unlucky
- thunderclaps are bad luck
- if chickens are offered a treat and refuse, the omens are bad
- sneezing can be a sign from the gods (and we're in pollin season)
- left is evil; if you observe the sky and only see birds on the left side, the omens are bad
- hang a penis-shaped amulet around your neck to ward off the evil eye
- the kalends and ides of every month are special days for the gods; the day after the kalends and ides are particularly unlucky
But here's the real question. If a day is unlucky, does that mean the stock market will go down? Or does that mean my investments will go down? I'm inclined towards believing I should just avoid trading on unlucky days, but im thinking of experimenting with buying puts on opening at unlucky days.
