That stock-trading TikTok โwitchโ might not actually be an investing genius
In the last Moneyin2 email, we told you about a โwitchโ on TikTok who uses astrology and tarot cards to trade stocks.ย
Do not do this, we said.ย
That remains good advice.
On one level this is simply a funny story that went viral. But the more interesting question is, why was she able to make money by pulling the Ace of Cups from her tarot deck?
Iโm going to take @Blonderichwitch at her word, partly because her TikToks include screenshots of a trading account which does appear to have made $1,200 in one day trading Oracle stock.
