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!

Easter is only a week away and in the next few days, I am going to be sharing with you some of my family’s favorite Easter traditions. I thought I would start with Brunch. Our family’s Easter Brunch is something that everyone looks forward to. After celebrating mass on Easter Sunday each year, we gather together at either my house or my mother’s house.  My four young children are always very eager to begin looking for hidden eggs filled with little toys or treats while the women of our family get busy cooking in the kitchen.
After my family enjoys our big Easter Brunch together, we usually get comfy in the living room and just relax.  It a great time to just sit and reflect and not let the busy world in.  Our children usually take a little break before they start running around again and sometimes we watch a movie together and eat some Easter candy or dessert.  How do you spend Easter with your family?  Do you make any special dishes?  I would love for you to share your family’s #OreidaHashbrown recipes with me!  You can even leave a link in the comment section if you would like. 🙂  Have a wonderful Easter!

Ingredients
  • 1 (30 oz.) bag Ore-Ida Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes, thawed completely
  • 1 (14 oz.) bag broccoli florets, thawed completely
  • 1/2 lb. good quality deli ham, chopped small
  • 1/2 large red pepper, chopped small
  • 1/2 large onion, chopped small
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced
  • 2 cups of shredded Pepper Jack cheese, divided
  • 2 cups of shredded Sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 12 eggs
  • 3/4 cup 2 % fat or higher milk
  • 3/4 cups sour cream
  • 1 Tbsp. dried parsley
  • 1 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Saute the red pepper, onion and garlic in 2 Tbsp. butter until softened about 5 minutes.
  3. Set aside.
  4. In an extra large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, ham and 1 1/2 cups of each of the cheeses.
  5. Evenly spread half of the potato mixture into a lightly greased 11 x 15 (5 qt.) baking dish.
  6. If you do not have a casserole dish that large, you may divide it into two separate dishes.
  7. Top the potato layer with the broccoli and then the red pepper mixture.
  8. Cover the vegetables with the remaining potato mixture.
  9. In the same mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sour cream and salt and pepper.
  10. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole.
  11. Sprinkle with dried parsley and top with the remaining cheese (1 cup total).
  12. Bake covered with foil loosely for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for another 30-35 minutes until the casserole is browned around the edges and the casserole does not appear to be runny.
  13. *Cooking time will vary depending on the size and shape casserole dish you use. I love to use a pretty round dish for special occasions, but it makes the casserole thicker- sometimes requiring at least 20 more minutes of cooking time, so use your judgement.
  14. Remove from the oven and let cool and set for 10 minutes before serving.
  15. May be served hot or at warm at about room temperature.
  16. Store any left over casserole in the refrigerator.
  17. Serves 10-12.
  18. *If you are making this ahead of time, prepare the casserole, cover and store in the refrigerator up to 24 hours. until you are ready to bake it. May require a few more minutes of baking time straight from the refrigerator.
  19. Enjoy!
