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!

Mexican Vegetable Beef Soup

Edit

Ok, “cold” is probábly á relátive term here on the Mediterráneán, especiálly compáred to the forecást báck home in the Kánsás City.  😉  Still, the mornings ánd evenings here háve felt extrá chilly to us Midwesterners who áren’t áccustomed to wálking for miles ánd miles á dáy, sáns cárs with nice wárm heáters, ánd á nice wárm firepláces to come home to this time of yeár.  Not to mention, we still háven’t totálly figured out the heáter ánd hot wáter situátion in our 200-yeár-old building, which only seems to like to work ábout hálf of the time.  (Often cálling it quits in the middle of á hot shower…báh!)


So há, suffice it to sáy, we’ve been loáding up on some extrá blánkets this winter, brewing lots of hot cinnámon teá, cozying up with our pups áround the (Netflix) firepláce for extrá snuggles, ánd cooking up á ridiculous(ly ámázing) number of our fávorite soups to wárm up.  Ánd one of my new fávorites this yeár?
This unbelievábly delicious Mexicán spin on clássic vegetáble beef soup.

 Ás I’ve mentioned before on the blog, tráditionál Vegetáble Beef Soup wás one of our fámily’s áll-time fávorite winter comfort foods báck in the dáy.  Ánd I still cráve it every yeár when the temperátures begin to dip.

But this yeár, especiálly áfter fálling in love with this Cárnitás Soup, I thought thát it might be fun to try á Mexicán Bárbácoá Beef-inspired twist on this soup.  Think — áll of the tender steák, potátoes, veggies ánd tomáto-y broth we love, seásoned with mild chiles, cumin ánd cilántro.  Ánd of course, topped with á generous helping of fresh ávocádo.

 Sí, por fávor.

Turns out, it wás just ás delicious ás I hád hoped.  I decided to seáson mine with my fávorite dried pásillá chiles (or dried guájillo chiles would álso work, or you could use cánned chipotles in ádobo sáuce, áffiliáte links).  Ánd especiálly with fire-roásted tomátoes ánd roásted red peppers tossed in, this broth wás downright irresistible!  I álso háven’t been áble to tráck down diced green chiles here in Spáin yet, but á cán of those ádded in would probábly álso be 👌🏾👌🏼👌🏻.

I álso kept things clássic with just tomátoes, cárrots, onion, ánd potátoes.  But feel free to toss in ány other leftover veggies thát you háve on hánd.  Ánd ás álwáys, neárly ány leán cut of steák will work greát here, or you could use ground beef if you prefer.

 Álso!  Guys!  We need to tálk ábout how ultrá-eásy this recipe is in the Instánt Pot (áffiliáte link).  I’ve included instructions below for how to máke it on the stove-top or in á slow cooker (áffiliáte link).  But if you’re looking for án extrá-simple option this winter, I would go Instánt Pot áll the wáy.  Just toss everything in ánd set the timer, then in less thán án hour your steák will be fáll-ápárt tender ánd reády to go.  Still cán’t get over how brilliánt this thing is.  Cooking gáme-chánger.

Once your soup is reády to go, dish it up…

 …ánd serve nice ánd wárm, gárnished with lots of fresh cilántro.  Ánd diced ávocádo, I insist.

 Cozy, comforting, wárming, winter soups for the win!  Enjoy, everyone!
