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!

BAKED BELL PEPPER TACOS

Take taco night to the next level with these Baked Bell Pepper Tacos! With instructions for vegan, vegetarian, and paleo options, these peppers are ready to transform your typical taco fare with a clean-eating twist!

Much like singing deliciously off-key, leaving the dishes in a Tetris-like tower in the sink, and making stretchy pants a way of life… stuffing veggies with veggies is totally my thing.
Stuffed sweet potatoes will always be my first true love, tied with the always-awesome stuffed spaghetti squash in all its versatile glory. Then there’s the forever-popular stuffing of the bell peppers which is SO DARN GOOD! I tend to load up on seasonal stuffed squash and sweet potatoes all Fall and Winter long, then dive right into bell pepperdom at first sign of Spring.
Take taco night to the next level with these Baked Bell Pepper Tacos! With instructions for vegan, vegetarian, and paleo options, these peppers are ready to transform your typical taco fare with a clean-eating twist!

Ingredients
  • 4 large bell peppers
  • 3-4 cups taco filling (see below)
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheese, extra as desired
  • 3/4 cup chopped tomato
  • 3/4 cup chopped lettuce
  • cilantro and lime, as a tasty edible garnish

FEISTY FILLING OPTIONS:
a. 1lb ground beef, chicken, or turkey - seasoned your favorite way and browned on the stove-top! I use a combination of enchilada sauce (homemade or store bought) and homemade taco seasoning to flavor mine, plus a little mexican hot sacue for a kick! You can also make your protein option in advance and keep in the fridge for 2-3 days or freezer for emergency taco night filling. This also works with my lentil-veggie taco filling too!

b. 3-4 cups Lentil Veggie Taco Filling (recipe)

c. 3-4 cups Seasoned tofu (like chipotle-style sofritos)

d. 2 cups Refried Beans or black beans + 1-2 cups sautéed veggies

TASTY TOPPINGS (choose your favorites)
shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
fresh cilantro
sliced jalapeños
fresh or leftover grilled/roasted/sautéed veggies
fresh chopped avocado
guacamole
pico de gallo
salsa verde
salsa
lime wedges, for a burst of citrus
Looking for extra crunch? Try crumbling a few tortilla chips on top of your bell peppers or serve them with a side of chips and salsa!

Instructions
  1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F. Choose your protein option(s) from the above list and cook via preferred method.
  2. Slice each bell pepper in half. Hollow out each pepper, removing stem, seeds, etc...
  3. Lay peppers on a baking sheet and cook for 8-10 minutes until al-tente or for 10-15 minutes for softer peppers.
  4. Fill each pepper to the brim with your taco filling of choice (see above for tasty options; I made mine t-rex this time around) and top with cheese.
  5. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, then pile mile-high with all your favorite taco toppings! Anything goes on taco night!
Notes
Though I included the measurements I used for 8 bell pepper tacos, feel free to double, triple, or halve the recipe as desired.

To fit your dietary needs, choose your own ideal combination of toppings and fillings from the lists above. The version I photographed was of the T-rex variety but snagging one of the vegan or vegetarian filling options I posted above will help you stick with your plan! You can also mix and match the fillings. Combine black beans and sautéed veggies with any of the protein options from ground turkey to tofu. Have fun with it!
