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!

Glazed Lemon Blueberry Muffins
Glazed lemon blueberry muffins are bursting with sweet blueberries and topped with a tangy lemon glaze. They’re easy to make and perfect for breakfast, brunch or a tasty snack anytime.
My kids love having muffins for breakfast, and we usually bake a batch or two on the weekends. We usually serve them with eggs and either bacon or sausage, and then we save the leftover muffins for the rest of the week.
This is a huge timesaver during the school year, when mornings are rushed.
In the summer, the kids can grab one for breakfast whenever they happen to wake up. Of course, the teens wake up so late that they end up having the muffins for a snack after lunch — must be nice!
We probably make banana muffins more than anything, and in the fall, it’s all about pumpkin. But since we’re coming into blueberry season, I thought it would be the perfect time to make lemon blueberry muffins.
I love when blueberries are in season. Sure, you can get frozen berries any time, but there’s nothing like fresh juicy ripe blueberries! I use them in salads, over ice cream, in cereal and in yogurt. We even like to eat them straight up.
I don’t bake with them that often, but the Hubs bought a bunch of these berries on sale, so yeah — muffins!
This recipe makes light, almost fluffy muffins that aren’t heavy at all. And instead of vegetable oil or butter, I use coconut oil.
You can really taste the lemon, but it’s not overly powerful. I also top the muffins with a little bit of lemon glaze for an extra burst of flavor. This step is optional, but it really enhances the flavor.
And, it makes the tops nice and glossy, which makes you want to dig right in!
I use this same recipe to make lemon cranberry, or actually, dried cranberry muffins, but I like the fresh blueberries better. The muffin tin gets a little messy from blueberry juice, but it cleans up easily.
And it’s so worth the mess!
Can I use vegetable oil in place of coconut oil in this recipe?
You can definitely use vegetable oil or butter if you want! Just use the same amount in the recipe.
Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?
I love fresh blueberries, but you can make these muffins with frozen blueberries!
