Stock Market Astrology

Explore market-timing hypotheses through an astrological lens. This tool helps you log events (e.g., retrogrades, lunations, eclipses), attach trade notes, and review outcomes—so you can evaluate ideas with data rather than hunches.

What this page is (and isn’t)

This is an education & research sandbox. Markets are driven by policy, flows, positioning, and information—not by any single framework. Use this tool to document hypotheses and test them against your own results.

We do not recommend trading on astrology alone; treat it as one layer in a multi-factor process with sound risk controls and post-trade reviews.

Suggested workflow

  1. Add upcoming events (lunations, retrogrades, eclipses, ingresses, custom).
  2. Tag symbols (e.g., NIFTY, SPX, BTC) and note your pre-event plan & risk.
  3. After the window, record outcome and attach a chart URL/screenshot note.
  4. Use the Review tab for hit-rate by event type and a simple bias table.

You can export CSV any time and analyze in Sheets/Python for deeper stats.

Reading & evidence

Some academic work has explored celestial cycles and markets (e.g., lunar-phase return patterns). Results are mixed and debated; treat them as hypotheses to test, not facts.
