Really bad luck. He is talking about "suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" as opposed to taking "arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing, end them." Slings and arrows are weapons: he feels attacked by "outrageous fortune". Because of the parallel structure of the sentence, we know that the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune is the same thing as a sea of troubles. Fortune is luck, but this luck is an outrage, it is outrageous. He thinks he life is just a bunch of really bad luck.

What does shakespeare mean by fortune's cap?
Rosencrantz, Guildenstern and Hamlet are talking about Fortune as a woman. Those who have good fortune are at the top, and those who have bad fortune are at the bottom. It's like the old image of the wheel of fortune, where good luck takes you to the top, but then can spin you down to the bottom. So, in answering the question which amounts to "How are things going?" Guildenstern's answer is "On Fortune's cap we are not the very button." They are not that button you find on the very tip top of a baseball cap--they are not the luckiest guys in the world, who would be at the highest possible point of Fortune. But in answer to Hamlet's question Rosencrantz says neither are they the soles of her shoes, the lowest possible part of her and therefore the unluckiest possible. No, they are about in the middle near her waist. Which of course gives rise to a dirty joke, which then gives rise to Hamlet's remark "She is a strumpet." Hamlet riffs on the dirty joke to say that there is no trusting luck which is actually a fairly deep remark.

How is the word fortune characterized in Hamlet?
Fortune is characterized as a malicious or capricious prostitute. In Hamlet's discussion with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Guildenstern starts with the metaphor "On Fortune's cap we are not the very button.", and so they explore just what part of Fortune they might be worn on and conclude that their fortunes are middling so they are worn in her middle, whereupon Hamlet says "In the secret parts of Fortune? True, she is a strumpet." This might be thought to be a throwaway joke except that the First Player's speech about Hecuba includes the line, "Out, out, thou strumpet Fortune." In his famous soliloquy Hamlet talks about "the slings and arrows of outrageous Fortune", suggesting that Fortune is malicious. His line to Horatio, that he is "a man that Fortune's buffets and rewards have ta'en with equal thanks" suggests a more equanimical view of Fortune. He goes on to say "Blest are those whose blood and judgment are so well commingled that they are not a pipe for Fortune's finger to sound what stop she please." This echoes Romeo's line "O I am Fortune's fool!"
