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!

BLUEBERRY FRENCH TOAST BAKE

That’s why make-ahead breakfast casseroles are the perfect solution especially if you have guests coming over for a holiday brunch. Mother’s Day, Easter, Christmas or any ole’ Sunday.
Overnight Blueberry French Toast Bake makes the perfect easy and delicious make ahead breakfast or brunch. Best of all, this recipe is super easy to assemble the night before and easy to customize. Bursting with sweet blueberries, fresh lemon and a crunchy cinnamon streusel topping.

Ingredients
Streusel Topping:
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter cold and cubed
  • 1 [16 ounce 450 g] loaf of French bread or sourdough bread (day old bread works best), cut into 1-inch cubes with the ends discarded
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese softened optional - leave out if preferred
  • 2/3 cup maple syrup OR honey divided
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups blueberries , divided (fresh or frozen)
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups milk (I used almond)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

OPTIONAL BLUEBERRY COMPOTE:
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup OR honey
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • water as needed to thin out sauce to desired consistency
  • Optional Toppings:
  • maple syrup
  • more fresh berries
  • whipped cream
  • powdered sugar

Instructions
Make the streusel topping:
  1. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon together. Cut in the cubed butter with a pastry blender or two forks. Set aside in the fridge.
  2. For the casserole:
  3. Lightly grease a 9x9-inch square baking dish or 2.5 quart casserole dish.
  4. Arrange half of the bread cubes in the bottom of the pan. In a small bowl, mix cream cheese with 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the bread and top with half of the berries.
  5. Layer with remaining bread cubes on top.
  6. In a large bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, remaining 1/3 cup of maple syrup, brown sugar and vanilla.
  7. Pour evenly over bread cubes. Press the bread cubes slightly down to absorb the milk/egg mixture.
  8. Top evenly with remaining berries. Sprinkle the streusel topping over the bread. Cover pan with foil. Allow to chill in refrigerator for an hour or overnight.
  9. When ready to bake, remove french toast from fridge. Preheat oven to 350 F. Bake covered with foil for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 23-26 minutes or until fluffy and golden.
  10. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Serve warm with syrup and additional toppings if desired.
FOR OPTIONAL BLUEBERRY COMPOTE:
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add maple syrup, cornstarch and blueberries. Bring to a boil, while stirring constantly and allow to bubble and thicken for about 2-3 minutes. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for about 7-10 minutes, or until the blueberries begin to pop. Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract. Add water as needed to desired consistency. Serve over french toast slices.
