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!
30-Minute Garlic Parmesan Pasta with Crispy Chicken
This pasta dish is super delicious. I timed myself and it took me 25 minutes from start to finish to have this dish on my plate. Can we all say perfect dish for a weeknight?
Once again, I used my absolute favorite Tyson Panko Crusted Frozen Chicken Tenders. They take 20 minutes in the oven and are juicy, crispy and super tasty. I pretty much use them ALL THE TIME, like in these Chicken Parmesan Crescents and on this Chicken Parmesan Flatbread Pizza and this Crispy Chicken and Roasted Garlic Flatbread Pizza.
The chicken baked while I boiled pasta and prepared the sauce. If you don't want to use crispy chicken tenders, you could always add shredded rotisserie chicken instead.
I served my Garlic Parmesan Breadtwists on the side and dipped them in the thick and creamy pasta sauce. I could not get enough. I'm even making it again this week for dinner.
INGREDIENTS :
- 4-5 Tyson Panko Crusted Chicken Tenders, cooked
- 3/4 Lb (12 oz.) - 1 Lb. (16 oz.) penne pasta,
- depending on how saucy you want the pasta to be
- 2 Tbl. unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 Tbl. all-purpose flour
- 1 c. low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 c. milk
- 1/4 tsp. white pepper, opt.
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
- chopped green onions, for garnish, opt.
INTRUCTIONS :
- Cook chicken tenders according to package directions. Cook the pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in the flour, one Tablespoon at a time, until a thick paste forms. Cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently.
- Slowly add the chicken broth and milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Add the white pepper and black pepper. Continue to cook until thickened, whisking occasionally. Last, whisk in the Parmesan cheese. Stir in the cooked pasta. Serve with cooked, sliced, chicken and garnish with green onions. Serves: 4
