On a lighter note, irrational investing habits you stick with

I can’t stand it when I have a stock/ETF position and it’s not a nice rounded number.

E.g. 2354 of a certain stock (for instance due to stock dividend) drives me nuts. I’ll always drive for nice round numbers 500, 1000, 2500, etc. - not just to make options trading easier (writing covered calls) but also for esthetic reasons.

In the 2354 example… that would trigger me to buy a few more shares to get to 2500.

Do you have any irrational habits that you’re aware of and stick with?

Round lots are not irrational.
