I was reading the Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu and came across the following which speaks directly to the best way to approach trading. If you are new to trading it may not resonate, but if you've been at this game for a minute or two, I'm sure you'll agree with what this quotes is saying as it relates to trading:
Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself?
Lao Tzu
