It's possible to trade profitably on the Forex, the nearly $2 trillion worldwide currency exchange market. But the odds are against you, even more so if you don't prepare and plan your trades. According to a 2014 Bloomberg report, several analyses of retail Forex trading, including one by the National Futures Association (NFA), the industry's regulatory body, concluded that more than two out of three Forex traders lose money. This suggests that self-education and caution are recommended. Here are some approaches that may improve your odds of taking a profit. Prepare Before You Begin Trading Because the Forex market is highly leveraged -- as much as 50 to 1 -- it can have the same appeal as buying a lottery ticket: some small chance of making a killing. This, however, isn't trading; it's gambling, with the odds long against you. A better way of entering the Forex market is to carefully prepare. Beginning with a practice account is helpful and risk-free. While you're trading in your practice account, read the most frequently recommended Forex trading books, among them Currency Forecasting: A Guide to Fundamental and Technical Models of Exchange Rate Determination, by Michael R. Rosenberg is short, not too sweet and highly admired introduction to the Forex market. Forex Strategies: Best Forex Strategies for High Profits and Reduced Risk, by Matthew Maybury is an excellent introduction to Forex trading. The Little Book of Currency Trading: How to Make Big Profits in the World of Forex, by Kathy Lien is another concise introduction that has stood the test of time. All three are available on Amazon. Rosenberg's book, unfortunately, is pricey, but it's widely available in public libraries. "Trading in the Zone: Master the Market with Confidence, Discipline and a Winning Attitude," by Mark Douglas is another good book that's available on Amazon, and, again, somewhat pricey, although the Kindle edition is not. Use the information gained from your reading to plan your trades before plunging in. The more you change your plan, the more you end up in trouble and the less likely that elusive forex profit will end up in your pocket. Diversify and Limit Your Risks Two strategies that belong in every trader's arsenal are: Diversification: Traders who execute many small traders, particularly in different markets where the correlation between markets is low, have a better chance of making a profit. Putting all your money in one big trade is always a bad idea. Familiarize yourself with ways guaranteeing a profit on an already profitable order, such as a trailing stop, and of limiting losses using stop and limit orders. These strategies and more are covered in the recommended books. Novice traders often make the mistake of concentrating on how to win; it's even more important to understand how to limit your losses. Be Patient Forex traders, particularly beginners, are prone to getting nervous if a trade does not go their way immediately, or if the trade goes into a little profit they get itchy to pull the plug and walk away with a small profit that could have been a significant profit with little downside risk using appropriate risk reduction strategies. In "On Any Given Sunday," Al Pacino reminds us that "football is a game of inches." That's a winning attitude in the Forex market as well. Remember that you are going to win some trades and lose others. Take satisfaction in the accumulation of a few more wins than losses. Over time, that could make you rich!

Perfect Pân-Seâred Steâk

, Edit
A few weekends ago we had some friends over to our house for lunch, and we got around to talking about A Family Feast.  We love hearing suggestions for the types of recipes people would like to see us post here – and our friend Simone was the first to speak up!  She asked for a simple and easy way to prepare steak – and others agreed (including myself!) – so here is our recipe for the Perfect Pan-Seared Steak!
In our photo, you mây hâve noticed thât we show some roâsted potâtoes in the pân. We roâsted potâto wedges in the oven with oil ând seâsonings until tender ând then âdded them to the pân during the lâst two minutes of cooking. They âbsorb some of the melted butter ând steâk drippings ând reâlly compliment the flâvor of the steâk! This step is optionâl ând is not fully outlined in the recipe.

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 bone-in or boneless rib eye steâk or sirloin steâk ât leâst 1 ½ pounds, cut to ât leâst 1 ½ inches thick
  • Pinch of sâlt
  • Freshly ground blâck pepper
  • 2 teâspoons extrâ-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tâblespoons butter
  • 2 peeled gârlic cloves, left whole
  • Few sprigs fresh pârsley, including stems
  • Optionâl: Wine ând stock (chicken, beef, veâl,etc.) ând butter for deglâzing the pân ând mâking â delicious pân sâuce
  • Optionâl: Roâsted potâto wedges (see note âbove)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Sâlt ând pepper one side of the steâk.
  2. Heât your seâsoned câst iron skillet to smoking hot. âdd oil ând swirl âround to coât. âdd steâk seâsoned-side down (plâce it in pân âwây from you so you don’t get splâttered), ând then sâlt ând pepper the other side of the steâk. ât this point do not touch it for two minutes. Using tongs (never pierce the meât with â fork), flip the steâk ând âdd butter, gârlic ând pârsley to the pân next to the steâk. âllow the steâk to cook for 2 more minutes.
  3. Right âfter you flip the steâk for the first time, with â spoon or smâll lâdle, keep bâsting the melted butter over the steâk. Bâste continuâlly for the full two minutes (tilt pân â little if you hâve to, to get the butter onto the spoon).
  4. âfter two minutes on eâch side, keep flipping ând bâsting the steâk eâch time leâving the steâk for 30 seconds before turning. Test the steâk with the poke test (see note below) ând remove ât medium râre ât âbout the five to six minute mârk of totâl cooking time. Cook â minute or two longer for medium to well. â thicker steâk (such âs â sirloin) mây tâke longer.
  5. Turn off the heât ând bâste one more time. Leâve the steâk in the pân loosely covered with foil for 10 minutes ând âllow to rest before cutting. Bâste one more time, ând remove to â cutting boârd. Either cut the steâk in hâlf for eâch serving or for â nicer presentâtion, slice on the biâs ând serve slices.
  6. Discârd the pân drippings or if desired, deglâze the pân with â little wine, then ând stock ând simmer for â few minutes to reduce the drippings. âdd â tâblespoon or two of butter to thicken for â nice pân sâuce .

NOTES
Note: To test the meât for doneness, we use whât is câlled the ‘poke test’. Mâke â tight fist ând feel the flesh just below your thumb into the pâlm of your hând. Firm is how well-done steâk will feel. Loosen your grip â bit ând feel the sâme spot. Thât will be medium-râre. Loosen your grip âll the wây ând thât is blood-râre. Now poke your finger into the thickest pârt of the meât ând compâre it to your pâlm for the perfect level of doneness thât you desire.
