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!

BLUEBERRY LEMON BREAD WITH LEMON GLAZE

BLUEBERRY LEMON BREAD WITH LEMON GLAZE
Lemon zest, freshly squeezed lemon juice, blueberries, vanilla – what’s not to love, especially in the Summer! This blueberry lemon bread recipe with lemon glaze combines all these delicious ingredients to produce the ultimate breakfast, brunch, and dessert recipe good for all year around.
TIPS AND TRICKS FOR MAKING PERFECT LEMON BREAD
Use 8×4 inch loaf pan.
Use parchment paper. Line the bottom and two sides of the pan with the parchment paper. This will ensure that your lemon bread will not fall apart when you take it out of the baking pan.
Use 2 separate bowls for combining dry and wet ingredients. Combine dry ingredients in one bowl. Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Only then, combine the two together.
Toss blueberries with flour (2 tablespoons) before adding them to the batter. This will help prevent blueberries from sinking.
Do not overmix. Overmixing will allow gluten to develop more than you want and your bread will be tough and rubbery. For soft and fluffy texture – do not overmix the batter.
Cool the lemon bread before glazing. Drizzle the top of the bread with the glaze only after the bread has been completely cooled. Otherwise your glaze will be too runny.
BLUEBERRIES
Use fresh or frozen blueberries. You don’t have to thaw frozen blueberries, just use them as is.
Coat blueberries with 2 tablespoons of flour. This will prevent the blueberries from sinking to the bottom of the breading during baking.
The glaze is made from freshly squeezed lemon juice and powdered sugar. There is just enough glaze to cover the top of the lemon bread with a drizzle and not to overwhelm the overall flavor of this dessert! The slice (or two, or three) of this blueberry lemon bread is lovely early in the morning with a hot cup of coffee or tea.

STORING AND FREEZING LEMON BREAD
Keep lemon bread refrigerated. It keeps fresher and longer this way, plus the glaze keeps better, too. You can refrigerate the blueberry lemon bread after it’s completely cooled. To properly store the bread, cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
Freezing lemon bread. This lemon bread freezes well. Place it in a large plastic bag and seal air-tight. You can also wrap it really tightly with a plastic wrap. Then
After you bake the bread, cool it completely before drizzling with lemon glaze. Also, make sure the bread is completely cool before you refrigerate it. Enjoy!
