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!

Tuesday is Halloween, and then (gasp!) the next day it’s November! Most people love the holiday season, but for anyone who’s trying to follow some type of carb-conscious eating plan, I don’t think there’s any doubt that November and December are two of the hardest months of the year to watch your carbs. I do try to help, but even on this blog there are always a few more indulgent treats than usual showing up during the holidays. So when I was looking at the recipes I’d worked on lately I thought it might be good to at least start out the week with a new recipe that’s definitely a healthy option. Do you like the sound of that?

This Low-Carb Sesame Chicken and Broccoli Sheet Pan Meal has similar flavors to the take-out Sesame Chicken and Broccoli that I’m guessing most people have had at least a few times, but there is no carb-loaded coating on the chicken, and the sauce isn’t sweetened with sugar like take-out Sesame Chicken would be. And this tasty sheet pan meal couldn’t be easier to make. You could cut up the chicken and make the marinade the night before; then let it marinate while you’re at work all day (or at least 4-5 hours.) Then dinner can be on the table in less than 30 minutes! I used some foil to make the pan even easier to clean, but if you’re not a fan of cooking with foil just cook the chicken and broccoli right on the sheet pan! I didn’t try this out on any kids, but I’m guessing it’s pretty kid-friendly too.

INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 lb. broccoli crowns, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 T peanut oil
  • black sesame seeds for garnish (optional; regular sesame seeds are also fine)  

MARINADE/GLAZE INGREDIENTS
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce (gluten-free if needed, I used gluten-free Tamari)
  • 1 T unseasoned rice vinegar (don’t use seasoned vinegar which contains sugar)
  • 1 T + 1 tsp. Asian Sesame Oil
  • 1 T granulated Stevia sweetener (or other sweetener of your choice)
  • 1 T agave nectar, maple syrup, or sugar-free maple syrup (or other sweetener of your choice)
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Trim chicken breasts removing any fat and undesirable parts and cut the chicken into pieces about 1 inch square.
  2. Mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, granulated Stevia or other sweetener, agave or other sweetener, and garlic powder to make the marinade/glaze.
  3. Put chicken pieces in a Ziploc bag or plastic container with a snap-tight lid and add the marinade, reserving 1/4 cup marinade to glaze the chicken and broccoli with after it’s cooked.
  4. Let chicken marinate in the fridge at least 4-5 hours, or all day while you’re at work will be fine.
  5. When you’re ready to cook, drain the chicken in a colander placed in the sink.
  6. Cover baking sheet with foil (or spray the heated pan later with non-stick spray if you’re not using foil.) Put the baking sheet into the oven and preheat to 425F/220C.
  7. When the oven has come to temperature, put chicken pieces on the hot baking sheet, spray with non-stick spray if you didn’t use foil, and put it back into the oven, and cook 8 minutes.
  8. While chicken cooks, trim the broccoli, cut into same-size florets, and put broccoli into a bowl and toss with the peanut oil.
  9. After 8 minutes, remove baking sheet and tuck the broccoli pieces among the pieces of chicken on the baking sheet. Put it back into the oven and cook 12-14 minutes more, or until chicken and broccoli is done to your liking.
  10. Brush the hot chicken and broccoli with the reserved glaze, and garnish with black sesame seed (or sesame seeds) if desired. Serve hot
