Nobody said trading is easy. It is where nobody ventures that you find the
best opportunities. Otherwise, you are competing with hundred others for the
same ticks. Yes, in illiquid markets you can be fooled around, and hence you
should not attempt to daytrade, however trading at the open or the close only
is not too difficult. Now just as benefits are potentially greater, so are
the risks: There's no free lunch...
