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!

Vegan Sweet Potato Mac n Cheese (Gluten Free)

Mac n cheese. It conjures up memories of childhood events at my grandmothers townhouse in Annapolis. The adults gathered around the polished dining table over glasses of red wine. Ham biscuits, green salads, cheese casseroles set glistening on silver platters and wooden trays. The kids watched all of this from the tiny kitchen where we sat in eager anticipation of our boxed / canned dinner.


Most plant based “cheese” sauces rely on nuts for creaminess and/or nutritional yeast for that cheese-like umami flavor. And that’s fine, really. Both of those ingredients offer something essential to a plant based cheesy sauce. However, if you’ve ever made an un-cheese sauce than you know there tends to be something missing.

And I’ll tell you what it is. Balance.!!!

Vegan Sweet Potato Mac n Cheese (Gluten Free) Recipe
A 30 minute vegan mac n "cheese" made with sweet potato, hemp hearts, and sunflower seeds. A creamy, umami-rich vegan mac that's actually good for you!


Ingredients

  • 10 ounces dry gluten free pasta (or pasta of your choice)
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion, minced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups roasted sweet potato, skin removed
  • 2 tablespoons hemp hearts
  • 5 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons mellow white miso
  • 5 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil + 1 teaspoon more
  • 1 cup water + more to your liking
  • 1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt + more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper, ground
  • 1 slice gluten free bread, toasted OR 1 cup gluten free panko bread crumbs

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pasta according to package directions.
  2. While the noodles are boiling, make the sauce. 
  3. Sauté the onion with a drizzle of olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or large sauté pan) set over high heat. Stir occasionally. Cook until the onions caramelize and brown, 5-8 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook 1-2 minutes more, until the garlic browns and becomes aromatic. Remove from heat.
  4. To the bowl of a high powered blender, add the onion and garlic, roasted sweet potato, hemp hearts, sunflower seeds, miso, nutritional yeast, olive oil, water, salt and pepper. Blend on high until completely creamy. Add more salt or pepper, to taste.
  5. Once the pasta is cooked, drain the pasta of water. Then rinse the pasta in cold water, breaking up the noodles with your hands, and drain again (this removes the excess starch that makes gluten free pasta stick together).
  6. Add the pasta to your cast iron skillet (or serving dish). Drizzle with olive oil and toss.
  7. Add your slice of toast to the (clean and dry) bowl of your blender. Pulse until the toast breaks up into semi-fine breadcrumbs.
  8. Add the "cheesy" sauce to a pot and bring it to a simmer, stirring relatively constantly.
  9. Pour the "cheesy" sauce over top of the noodles and toss everything together. Top with the breadcrumbs and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Cook & prep time doesn't include the time it takes to roast / cook sweet potato. [br]My sweet potato roasting method: Preheat the oven to 375F. Cut the sweet potato into 3 inch pieces. Toss with olive oil. Lay out over a parchment lined baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, until the sweet potato is fork tender. Let cool completely before peeling the skins off of the sweet potato.
