If you think by examining someone's facial expressions you can judge if he has good or bad luck in the stock market, think again.A study published in the journal, Science, has shown that body language provides a better signal in judging whether the observed subject has just gone through an intensely positive or negative experience.

In one study, they compared emotional expressions of professional tennis players winning or losing a discover exactly how people view images, the researchers showed different editions of the pictures to three groups of participants：1) the full picture with the face and body;2) the body with the face removed;3) the face with the body rkably, participants could easily pick the losers from winners when they judged by the full picture or the body alone, but they only had a 50：50 chance of being right when judging by the face ngely, the participants，who viewed the full image believed that it was the face, not the body, that revealed the person's emotions.

In an additional study, the researchers performed the same series of tests, asking viewers to examine a wider range of reallife intense n，viewers were unable to tell faces in positive situations from negative researchers also “planted” faces on bodies expressing positive or negative enough, the researchers discovered that the emotion of the same face on different bodies was determined by the body on which it appeared.
