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!

Blueberries are a great fruit, don’t you think? They’re one of my many favorite fruits, besides clementines, bananas and watermelon. I love how sweet and tarty they are. They aren’t overly mushy either. I really hate mushy fruit. And blueberries stay fresh forever.
For some reason we either go through fruit quickly or never touch it. Some days all we do is snack on fruit and some days we won’t look at it. Hence the reason I love that blueberries stay fresh for a while.
These scones are easy to whip together and are really really yummy! This recipe makes 8 scones and they’re always gone within 2 days at my house. We devoured them to say the least. So if you’re looking for a sweet breakfast but gotta go, make these Blueberry Scones with Vanilla Glaze!
Blueberry Scones with Vanilla Glaze are perfect for a quick grab and go breakfast. They're crunchy around the edges but moist in the center. Topped with a vanilla glaze to give them a bit of sweetness.

Ingredients:

Scones:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup + 1 tablespoon heavy cream
  • coarse sugar (optional)
Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, add the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Whisk together to combine.
  3. Add cubes of cold butter to flour mixture. Using a pastry blender, fork or your hands break down butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Fold the blueberries into the flour mixture. Make sure to be gentle and not break the blueberries.
  5. Fold in the 1 cup of heavy cream, until just incorporated. Do not over work the dough.
  6. Press the dough into a 12 by 3 rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Cut the rectangle in half, then cut the pieces in 1/2 again. This should give you 4 squares. Cut the squares in 1/2 diagonal. This will give you the classic scone shape.
  7. Place scones on an ungreased baking sheet. Brush the tops with the tablespoon of heavy cream. You can also sprinkle some coarse sugar if you have it.
  8. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  9. Remove scones to a wire rack and let cool completely before glazing.
  10. In a large glass measuring bowl or small bowl, mix all glaze ingredients until smooth. Using a spoon drizzle over cooled scones. Let sit for 30 minutes, so the glaze can harden.
  11. Serve & Enjoy!
