Q: Before you begin devising your learning strategy, it helps to have a clear understanding of exactly what you want to learn and why. If you have a specific goal in mind, such as passing an exam, be sure that you understand what you are required to know. If you are just learning for your own enjoyment, think about things you would like to know.  When you take a traditional class, teachers outline your goals for you. If you want to go at it on your own without losing the structure that you need to succeed, it's a good idea to emulate this. Consider brainstorming a list of questions you want to know the answers to, if this applies to your subject. For example, if you want to be an expert on trains, you may want to know what kinds of trains there are, what is the fastest kind of train, what is the most energy efficient train, etc.  If you can't break your goals down into answerable questions, find another way of quantifying them. For example, if you want to learn to speak Spanish, write down some topics that you would like to be able to converse about. Once you know what you want to learn, you must decide when you want to learn it. Depending on whether you are studying for a specific reason or just for your own enjoyment, you may have different time restraints.  It will help you tackle the monumental task of learning about a new subject if you break it down into small sections. Try setting a goal for yourself to learn each subsection of material by a specific date. If you need some help planning out your timeline for studying different topics, consider consulting a text book on your subject. These are typically broken up into logical sections, which can give you a good idea of what the main topics are, how much time you should spend on each, and what order you should attempt to learn them in, even if you don't end up reading the whole book. The only way to learn something new is to spend some time studying it. If you can't commit the time, you will not learn, no matter what methods you use.  Try to come up with a schedule for studying. Doing it at the same time each day can help you stay committed. Consider how much you need to learn in what period of time. If you are in no rush, you may want to commit only a small amount of time to start with. Committing too much time can leave you feeling overwhelmed and unmotivated. Everyone is different when it comes to which techniques work the best to help them learn. If you want to successfully teach yourself something, you will need to understand how your brain learns. Keep in mind that for many people, a combination of several techniques is ideal.  Visual learners learn best by reading information and writing it down. They may also find tools like flashcards and checklists very helpful. Auditory learners learn best by listening to information and repeating it out loud. They may also benefit from recording themselves and replaying it. Kinesthetic learners learn best by trying things for themselves. They often find hands-on experiments to be the most helpful learning tool. As you learn, keep your initial goals in mind and congratulate yourself for meeting them. Don't feel, however, that you need to stop learning just because you meet your goals.  If you find that you become interested in something tangential, don't be afraid to explore it. You have the power to decide what you will learn next. Consider setting new goals for yourself when you have accomplished the original ones. This will help keep you motivated to continue learning.
A: List your goals. Create a timeline. Set aside time. Understand your learning style. Keep seeking out learning opportunities.

Q: You can try several different methods:   Technical analysis: Technical analysis involves reviewing charts or historical data to predict how the currency will move based on past events. You can usually obtain charts from your broker or use a popular platform like Metatrader 4.  Fundamental analysis: This type of analysis involves looking at a country's economic fundamentals and using this information to influence your trading decisions.  Sentiment analysis: This kind of analysis is largely subjective. Essentially you try to analyze the mood of the market to figure out if it's "bearish" or "bullish." While you can't always put your finger on market sentiment, you can often make a good guess that can influence your trades. Depending on your broker's policies, you can invest a little bit of money but still, make big trades.  For example, if you want to trade 100,000 units at a margin of one percent, your broker will require you to put $1,000 cash in an account as security. Your gains and losses will either add to the account or deduct from its value. For this reason, a good general rule is to invest only two percent of your cash in a particular currency pair. You can place different kinds of orders:   Market orders: With a market order, you instruct your broker to execute your buy/sell at the current market rate.  Limit orders: These orders instruct your broker to execute a trade at a specific price. For instance, you can buy currency when it reaches a certain price or sells currency if it lowers to a particular price.  Stop orders: A stop order is a choice to buy currency above the current market price (in anticipation that its value will increase) or to sell currency below the current market price to cut your losses. Above all, don't get emotional. The forex market is volatile, and you will see a lot of ups and downs. What matters is to continue doing your research and sticking with your strategy. Eventually, you will see profits.
A: Analyze the market. Determine your margin. Place your order. Watch your profit and loss.

Q: As before, a clean rag made from cotton or microfiber is ideal. You can use a cotton swab instead. Rub the toothpaste over the scratched area. Always move from the center directly to the edge. Repeated movement will slowly wear down the CD, smoothing it out to the level of the scratch. Do not press hard. Hold the CD under running water. Wipe it with a clean cloth in the same direction of movement. Be careful, as  dry CD is more easily scratched than a wet one. Blot away most of the water first, placing a lint-free cloth directly onto the CD and lifting. Finish by air drying or very gentle rubbing with a dry area of the cloth. As always, rub from the center to the edge in straight lines. Test the CD once it is completely dry. If it still doesn't function, you can try the same cleaning process with a polish meant for silver, plastic, or furniture. Never use a polish that smells like kerosene or contains petroleum derivatives, as these can break down the CD.
A:
Squirt the toothpaste onto a lint-free cloth. Gently wipe the scratched area. Wash off the toothpaste. Dry the CD. Try stronger abrasives.
