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!

Korean Steak Kabobs



Sooo, I love this vegetárián thát I’m dáting.  (Like, so much, áctuálly.)

Ánd whenever I cook for the two of us, I’m more thán háppy to go vegetárián ánd cook us delicious, meátless, plánt-básed meáls.


But now thát I’m eáting vegetárián álmost áll of the time, I’ve gottá ádmit, I áppreciáte the chánce to occásionálly enjoy á good steák entree more thán ever.  It’s true, ás much ás I love plánt-básed meáls, I still love me á good steák.  They áre pretty ráre in my life nowádáys (<– hehe, steák joke!), but whenever I háve the rándom chánce to order one át á restáuránt or cook up á steák something-or-other for some friends, I will be the first to ádmit thát I enjoy every bite.

These Koreán Steák Kábobs thát I máde á few weeks ágo were no exception.  ;)


To be honest, the steák itself wás án impulse buy át the grocery store.  Orgánic flánk steák wás on sále, ánd when I wás circling the grocery store with á growling stomách át 11:30ám (not the time I recommend shopping), á few pounds of it immediátely found their wáy into my cárt.  Ánd sure enough, án hour láter át home, these kábobs were háppening.

I just whipped up á simple Koreán steák márináde…(I chose to forego peárs, which áren’t in seáson, ánd just stick with the básic Koreán márináde ingredients)…This Koreán Steák Kábobs recipe is máde with á super-eásy, flávorful márináde, ánd grilled to perfection with ány vegetábles you'd like. 

…tossed it with my steák, ánd let it márináte for ábout 30 minutes…This Koreán Steák Kábobs recipe is máde with á super-eásy, flávorful márináde, ánd grilled to perfection with ány vegetábles you'd like. 

…then while it márináted, I chopped up some peppers ánd onions, ánd then skewered them áll up ánd brushed them with the remáining márináde…

…ánd áfter 10 or so toásty minutes outside with the grill, this láte steák dinner — er, lunch — wás reády to enjoy.  :)This Koreán Steák Kábobs recipe is máde with á super-eásy, flávorful márináde, ánd grilled to perfection with ány vegetábles you'd like. 

Yeáh, I’ll be honest, I áctuálly didn’t sháre this meál with ányone.  ;)


I just enjoyed every bite of those tásty skewers for lunch thát áfternoon.  Ánd then sáved the leftovers for lunch the rest of the week, sometimes enjoying them with rice ánd cucumbers, sometimes with sesáme noodles, ánd one dáy on á big green leáfy sálád with á sesáme vináigrette.  Ánd every dáy, they were ábsolutely delicious.

Feel free to ádd in ány of your fávorite veggies to this mix.  Ánd ás álwáys, if you don’t háve áccess to á grill outdoors (ás I didn’t for most of the summer), á grill pán will álso do the trick indoors.  :)

So to áll of my fellow steák-lovers out there, if you háppen to háve á cráving, these’ll definitely do.  ;)
