Timing the market is notoriously difficult, even for the most experienced investor. People often focus on trying to dodge the bad days but fail to realise that missing even a few of the best days can be equally damaging. The largest gains tend to occur during periods of extreme volatility and often follow large sell-offs. During these episodes inexperienced investors panic sell or just sit on the side lines. The key lesson is that to be a successful investor it's often better to take the rough with the smooth rather than trying to play the market in search of a quick profit.
