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!

Chocolate Raspberry Parfait is an easy dessert that anyone can do! Moist chocolate cake and creamy raspberry mousse layered into glasses will definitely be a hit at your dining table!

Ingredients
For the Chocolate Cake
  • ½ cup All-Purpose Flour (65g)
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2½ tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cup Superfine Sugar (100g)
  • ¼ cup Milk (60ml)
  • ¼ cup Sunflower Oil (60ml)
  • 1 Medium Egg

For the Raspberry Mascarpone Mousse
  • 1 cup Mascarpone Cheese (8oz/250g)
  • 2 cups Fresh Raspberries (200g), leave some for garnish
  • 8 tbsp Powdered Sugar

Instructions
  1. For the chocolate cake: Sift the flour, baking powder and cocoa powder into a bowl. Add sugar and mix everything with a wooden spoon. Pour in milk, sunflower oil and the egg. Mix this until well combined.
  2. Pour into 8x8 inch (20x20cm) cake pan lined with a sheet of baking paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F/180°C for 15-20 minutes or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. Let it cool completely before crumbling it with your hands.
  3. For the raspberry mousse: Using an electric mixer, combine the berries, mascarpone and powdered sugar until smooth.
  4. Fill glasses with layers of the chocolate cake crumb mix and raspberry mousse and garnish to your liking (i.e. fresh berries, chocolate shavings).
  5. Eat right away or chilled.

Recipe Notes
1. This recipe is versatile so you can adjust the amounts to your liking - thin the raspberry layer by adding more raspberries or top these with chocolate shavings, fresh raspberries, create more layers or use strawberries.

2. The cake will be enough for 4 glasses (8oz/250ml each). If you don’t use up all the cake, just wrap it in cling film and freeze for later use. In this case divide the raspberry mousse ingredients in half.

3. This recipe can be easily doubled.

4. You can use fresh or frozen raspberries (let them thaw before processing).

5. Powdered sugar – you can increase or decrease the amount of sugar to your liking.

6. Turn this into a no bake dessert by using Oreo cookies instead of baking the cake.
