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!

SMOKED SALMON EGGS BENEDICT

One of my all-time favorite breakfast recipes: smoked salmon and avocado eggs benedict! . The made-from-scratch Hollandaise sauce is ridiculously delicious and worth the time making! Add a crispy, butter-toasted English muffin, smoked salmon, creamy avocado, fresh dill, capers and a poached egg – you’re all set for an amazing morning!


The trick to making eggs benedict at home is all about the timing. You want to keep all the components of the recipe hot and ready to serve. The Hollandaise sauce will start to thicken once it sits so make sure to keep it covered and give it a good whisk before pouring over the eggs. If your sauce gets too thick, simply add a tablespoon or two of hot water and whisk vigorously.



INGREDIENTS

  • 2 English muffins, split
  • 1 large avocado, sliced
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill
  • 1 tbsp capers
  • heirloom tomatoes, for serving
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 3 ounces smoked salmon

For Hollandaise Sauce:

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • salt and black pepper
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Prepare all the ingredients necessary first: unpackage the smoked salmon, slice avocado, chop fresh dill.
  2. Prepare the Hollandaise sauce. Fill a saucepan with a bit of water, low enough that mixing bowl will not touch the surface of the water. Bring the water to a low simmer. In the glass mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk vigorously until thick and pale. Place the bowl over simmering water. Whisking constantly, slowing begin pouring in the melted butter, a tablespoon at a time; this process will take a few minutes.
  3. Continue cooking and whisking the sauce until it thickens to desired consistency. Remove the sauce from heat, cover with plastic wrap and keep warm.
  4. Preheat a large frying pan and melted 1 tablespoon of butter (or, use olive oil). Once the butter is melted, add the English muffins and toast on both sides.
  5. Poach the eggs last. Bring a saucepan of water to low simmer and add the vinegar and season the water with salt. Break one egg at a time into a small ramekin. Swirl the simmering water in one direction, then drop the egg into the center. If saucepan is large enough, cook multiple eggs at a time. Eggs will cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Test the egg for doneness by lifting it out of the water with a slotted spoon - the egg white should be firm but egg yolk still soft. Set the done eggs onto a paper-towel lined plate to absorb any excess water.
  6. To assemble the sandwich, first layer the English muffin with sliced avocado, top with smoked salmon, follow with poached egg and generous amount of Hollandaise. Garnish top with fresh dill and capers. If Hollandaise sauce has become too thick, thin the sauce with a tablespoon of hot water and whisk.
