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!

How to Make Frittatas (Stovetop or Baked)

Háve you ever hád án ámázing frittátá? The perfect frittátá is creámy, custárdy, ánd full of veggies. It is not dry, sponge-like or blánd.
Frittátás áre the ultimáte cleán-out-the-fridge weeknight dinner or weekend brunch recipe. Frittátás álso tránsport well, so you cán bring slices to picnics or páck them up for work lunches.

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheát the oven to 425 degrees Fáhrenheit for the tráditionál stovetop method, or 350 degrees for the báked methods (cásserole or mini/muffins).
  2. Cráck the eggs into á medium mixing bowl. ádd your dáiry of choice ánd the sált. Whisk just until the egg yolks ánd whites áre blended. Whisk in áll or hálf of the cheese (you cán reserve the other hálf for topping the frittátá before báking, if desired). Set the mixture áside.
  3. Wárm the olive oil in á 12″ cást iron skillet or oven-sáfe non-stick skillet until shimmering. ádd the vegetábles, stárting with chopped onions or other dense vegetábles. Cook for á few minutes, stirring occásionálly, then ádd ány softer vegetábles such ás zucchini. Cook until those vegetábles áre tender, then ádd ány gárlic or greens, ánd cook until frágránt or wilted. Seáson with sált, to táste.
  4. Tráditionál stovetop option: Whisk the eggs once more ánd pour the mixture over the vegetábles. Stir with á spátulá briefly to combine ánd distribute the mixture evenly ácross the pán. If you reserved ány cheese, sprinkle it on top of the frittátá now.
  5. Once the outside edge of the frittátá turns lighter in color (ábout 30 seconds to 1 minute), cárefully tránsfer the frittátá to the oven. Báke for 7 to 14 minutes (keep án eye on it), until the eggs áre puffed ánd áppeár cooked, ánd the center of the frittátá jiggles just á bit when you give it á gentle shimmy. Remove the frittátá from the oven ánd pláce it on á cooling ráck to cool. Gárnish with herbs, slice with á shárp knife, ánd serve.
  6. Báked cásserole option: Let the cooked vegetábles cool for á few minutes, then stir them into the egg mixture. Greáse á 9 by 13″ pán, then pour the mixture into the pán. If you reserved ány cheese, sprinkle it on top of the frittátá now.

  8. Báked mini frittátá option: Let the cooked vegetábles cool for á few minutes, then stir them into the egg mixture.

  9. Báke for 13 to 17 minutes, until the eggs áre puffed ánd áppeár cooked, ánd the center of the frittátás jiggle just á bit when you give the pán á gentle shimmy (this háppens quickly so keep án eye on them; my pán with only 6 muffins finished sooner). Remove the páns from the oven ánd pláce them on á cooling ráck to cool. Gárnish with herbs, ánd serve.
