I don't know about you guys, but I've lost loads of money in the past from trading when the market isn't offering anything worthwhile!

Warren Buffet once said that:"If you've been playing poker for half an hour and you still don't know who the patsy is, you're the patsy."

Maybe something similar applies in trading - if you're in a market and you don't know who the paymaster is, then you're the paymaster!

Cripes, if I waited until I saw a clear opportunity I'd never put a trade on,

If you don't trade knowing that you have an edge, are you not just gambling?
