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!

TERIYAKI SALMON RICE BOWL WITH SPINACH & AVOCADO


Teriyaki salmon rice bowl with spinach & avocado. Tender broiled salmon glazed with homemade teriyaki sauce on a bed of sushi rice, with spinach, sliced avocado and a sprinkling of toasted sesame & nori confetti.

I have a thing for rice bowls. There are many delicious rice bowls on Panning The Globe. And though I love them all, I have to say this teriyaki salmon rice bowl is my favorite. As many times as I make this recipe (often!), it’s always a treat.

I also love that this bowl is filled with nutritious ingredients. There’s Omega-3 fatty acids from the salmon and a good dose of iron & fiber from the spinach.

It has the gestalt of sushi but the salmon is cooked, the nori is toasted and sprinkled on top and everything is drizzled with tasty homemade teriyaki sauce.


IT’S EASY TO MAKE HOMEMADE TERIYAKI SAUCE

Homemade teriyaki sauce is made with 5 ingredients: soy sauce, mirin (rice wine), sugar, garlic and ginger. Simmer for ten minutes until slightly thickened and you’ve got delicious homemade teriyaki sauce.Once the sauce has cooled, set some aside to baste your salmon with. The salmon is basted before it goes into the oven and again halfway through cooking time.


Japan always ranks high for countries with the best longevity. This has been attributed to the fact that their diet is generally low in fat, with fish being the most common form of protein.

The tradition of serving seasonal vegetables with steamed rice, fish and other tasty things from the sea such as nori, has been central to Japanese cuisine for thousands of years.

This sesame-nori confetti is one one of my favorite recipe innovations. It adds great flavor and beauty to this dish.


If you want a quick weeknight teriyaki salmon rice bowl dinner, make the teriyaki sauce and toast the sesame seeds and nori in advance – you can keep both in airtight containers in the fridge for a week or so. The rice is best made fresh.

This is a very adaptable recipe. Eat it hot, cold or at room temp. Try it with different vegetables like sautéed snow peas, sugar snap peas or asparagus (cut on the diagonal into bite-sized pieces). Use tofu, chicken or beef instead of salmon. Make a teriyaki salmon rice bowl with short grain brown rice instead of white, for a big boost in fiber.

I’m sure you can think of lots of other variations – let me know if you come up with something really good!Here’s the Teriyaki Salmon Rice Bowl Recipe. If you try this recipe, I hope you’ll come back to leave a rating and a comment. I’d love to know what you think.

INGREDIENTS

Salmon:
1 pound salmon fillet cut into 4 thin portions (skin on is fine)
Teriyaki Sauce
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup Mirin (rice wine)
1/2 cup sugar (white or brown)
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic (optional)
1 teaspoon finely minced ginger (optional)

Toasted Sesame and Nori:
1 8-inch square sheet of Nori, cut with a scissors into 1-inch strips. Stack the strips and cut crosswise into 1-inch by 1/4-inch confetti.
2 tablespoons of black or white sesame seeds, or a mixture of both
Sushi Rice:
2 cups sushi rice (short grain rice)
2/3 cup homemade seasoned rice vinegar (see ingredients below) or you can buy seasoned rice vinegar in the Asian section of your grocery store.
1 cup rice vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
Sautéed Spinach:
20 ounces fresh spinach, washed
1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil
Kosher salt

Garnish:
1 bunch scallions, washed, trimmed, and sliced crosswise
1 Avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced

INSTRUCTIONS

Make the teriyaki sauce: In a small saucepan bring soy sauce, mirin, sugar, garlic (if using) and ginger (if using) to a gentle boil. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Toasted nori & sesame seeds: Toast nori and sesame seeds in a hot skillet for a minute or two, stirring and tossing constantly just until sesame seeds start to get a little brown. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Make the sushi rice: Rinse rice several times to remove excess starchy powder: put rice into a large bowl and cover by an inch with water. Swish rice around with your hands. Pour off cloudy water. Repeat 2 or 3 times more. Drain in a fine mesh colander. Cook rice per package directions. (about 2 1/2 cups water per 2 cups rice and a 15 minute simmer, covered) Remove rice from heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes.

While rice is cooking, make seasoned rice vinegar: in a small saucepan bring rice vinegar, sugar and salt to a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring, until sugar and salt are dissolved. Set aside. Transfer rice to a large nonmetallic bowl. Measure out 2/3 cup of seasoned rice vinegar and slowly pour it over the rice, while tossing and mixing it. Cover bowl with a cloth and set aside.
Cook the spinach: Heat 1 tablespoons sesame oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add spinach and 2 tablespoons water to the pan. Cover pan and leave it for 2 minutes. Uncover and stir. Spinach will be mostly wilted. Cook, stirring for about a minute more until it is completely wilted. Sprinkle with a pinch or two of salt. Remove from heat.
Cook the salmon: Preheat oven to broil and set the rack 8 inches from the top. Place salmon skin-side down on a foil-lined jellyroll pan. Pour 1/4 cup of teriyaki sauce into a separate small bowl to use for glazing the salmon. Brush salmon with teriyaki sauce and cook for two minutes under the broiler. Pull salmon out of the oven and brush more teriyaki sauce on top. Return to the oven and cook for 1-3 minutes more, to your desired doneness. Better to undercook it slightly as it will continue to cook a bit even after it’s out of the oven. Remove from oven.

Assemble rice bowls: Put rice and spinach in the bottom of a bowl. Lay salmon on top. (skin will peel off easily, if you prefer it skinless) Garnish with avocado slices. Sprinkle with scallions and nori-sesame confetti. Drizzle with teriyaki sauce. Repeat for each bowl.
