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!

HEALTHY SNICKERS BARS (VEGAN + 6 INGREDIENTS!)

Edit
Vegan and Gluten Free, these Healthy Snickers Bars will satisfy any sweet tooth! Made with only 6 plant based ingredients, they’re easy to make and good for you too.
Making your own candy bars is actually pretty dang easy. The best part? There’s no preservatives, artificial colors, or any questionable ingredients.
And who wouldn’t want a homemade Snickers Bar that is actually good for you…

Oh yeah, and did I mention you only need 6 plant based ingredients to make these gems? (Well, 7 if you want to get fancy and add in the Maca Powder for extra caramel-y flavor, but they are still delish without).  This recipe also only requires about20 minutes of work on your end, and if you use Chocolate that’s sweetened with Coconut Sugar (like I did), they are also refined sugar free!

Just look at those perfectly enrobed, Chocolatey bars with peaks and valleys of Peanuts. I mean, c’mon! You can’t tell me your mouth isn’t watering right now. And don’t even get me started on that cross-section…

My only regret about this recipe is that I did not make it sooner. Snickers Bars were my favorite candy as a teen, and I will admit that I missed them a little when I went vegan. But I don’t have to worry about that any more — now that I know how easy these are to make, and how healthy they are too, they may or may not become a regular occurrence 😉

Honestly, I think anyone will enjoy these Healthy Vegan Snickers – kid, adult, vegan, omnivore, and probably pets too (if they didn’t have chocolate, which is bad for them. DO NOT feed them these bars!). They are addicting in the best way possible, and I hope you try them out soon. Leave a comment on this post if you end up loving them as much as I do!

A Few Final Thoughts:

  • If you cannot eat peanuts due to an allergy or preference, you can substitute the PB with any nut or seed butter of choice – same goes for the whole nuts in the bars. Obviously the final result will taste different, but still be delicious! I would recommend Cashew or Almond Butter.
  • It can be a little tricky to coat these bars evenly in chocolate if you use your hands. For best results, I recommend melting your chocolate in a bowl with a wide base (so the bar can completely sit on the bottom) and using two forks to rotate / dunk the Snickers.
  • These bars are actually fine at room temperature and will not melt, but I would recommend storing them in the fridge or freezer so they last longer. If you store them in the freezer, let them defrost for a few minutes before serving.

INGREDIENTS

Caramel Layer:
  • 1 packed cup Medjool Dates
  • 2 tbsp Peanut Butter
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Maca Powder (Optional)
  • ¼ tsp Salt

INGREDIENTS

Caramel Layer:
  • 1 packed cup Medjool Dates
  • 2 tbsp Peanut Butter
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Maca Powder (Optional)
  • ¼ tsp Salt

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Remove the pits from the Medjool Dates and pack them (really pack them!) into 1 cup. Transfer the Dates to a larger bowl and cover with hot water. Soak the Dates for 10 minutes (or just cover the Dates in water and microwave for 60-80 seconds if you want to be efficient).
  2. If you do not have Oat Flour, make some by blending a scant ⅔ cup of Quick or Rolled Oats in a Blender for 45-60 seconds until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Drain any excess liquid off of the Medjool Dates (they should be relatively moist, but not dripping) and add them to a food processor or high speed blender with the remaining ingredients for the Caramel. Process until thick and smooth, scraping the sides of the device if necessary.
  4. Remove the Date “Caramel” from the food processor. Add the Oat Flour to the food processor (no need to rinse) with ¼ cup of the Date Caramel and process until well incorporated. This should form a slightly sticky “dough” that will hold together when you pinch it.
  5. Firmly and evenly press the Oat Flour Nougat into a small and narrow container (see notes).
  6. Use a spatula to spread the remaining Date Caramel evenly over the Nougat, then sprinkle the Peanut Pieces over the Caramel. Use your fingers to press the Peanuts into the Caramel layer, so they stick.
  7. Place this in the freezer for 60-90 minutes, until firm.
  8. Remove the frozen “filling” from it’s container, then use a sharp knife to cut it into bar-sized pieces. Return these to the freezer while you melt your chocolate.
  9. Melt your Chocolate using either a double boiler or the microwave. If you choose to use the microwave, place your Chocolate pieces in a wide bowl (so the candy bars will fit along the base) and microwave at 30 seconds intervals, stirring in between. Once the Chocolate is 75% melted, stop microwaving and stir the mixture with a spatula until completely melted.
  10. Moving quickly,  place 1 candy bar into the bowl of melted Chocolate. Use two forks to “flip” the bar, until it is coated in chocolate on all sides. Remove the ar from the melted Chocolate, letting any excess chocolate drip off. Then, place it onto a plate lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the remaining bars.
  11. Place the bars in the fridge for 5-10 minutes, to allow the Chocolate to harden.
  12. Serve and enjoy! Bars are best stored in the fridge and will last there for up to 10 days. You can also place them in the freezer, where they will last for up to one month – just let the bars thaw for 5 or so minutes before enjoying.
