Homemade Laundry Detergent

Dry method
1 c. 20 Mule Team Borax
1 c. Arm & Hammer Washing Soda
1 c. Arm & Hammer Baking Soda
½ c. Oxy Clean
Mix above ingredients in 1# plastic container (I used an old coffee container).

Grate ½ bar of Fels Naptha 5.5 oz. bar soap with fine cheese grater.
Add the grated Fels Napther to a food processor and add ½ c. of first mix. Process until a fine grain.
Add the rest of the 1st mix to the food processor and blend until mixed well.
Store in plastic container.
Use 2-3 Tablespoons of mix per full wash load.
My OxyClean came with a 2T. scoop so I use that.

I would guess about 30 loads per recipe.
I was very pleased with the results!

My costs, tax not included, 2/4/15 from WalMart, all items found in laundry aisle:
$ 3.97 Borax, enough for several batches
3.97 Arm & Hammer Washing Soda, enough for several batches
2.24 Arm & Hammer Baking Soda, enough for several batches
3.86 Oxy Clean (optional), enough for several batches
0.97 Fels Naptha bar soap, 1, enough for 2 batches
$15.01 total cost

Estimating cost per load…
Add 1 more bar of Fels Naptha at $0.97 to make a total of $15.98, which should make 4 batches.
4 (batches) x 30 (loads) = 120 (loads)
$15.98 divided by 120 = $0.133 (about 13-14 cents per load)

Natural Ivory Soap Method:
Follow above but use a 3.1 oz. bar of Ivory Soap instead of ½ bar of Fels Naptha.

At SecretsFromTheHeart.com, our approach to running EAs may be different than most you will run across. Because the currency market is so inconsistent, we consider EAs to be trading tools and most of them should not be run non-stop with the exception of swing traders. While we realize Forex traders want a 'Holy Grail' EA to run non-stop and act like an automated cash generator, because of the market inconsistency, this mindset is unrealistic.

We do what is called 'event filtering'. In following the historic results of activity after specific news releases we have learned the more optimum times to run each EA. So each weekend we review the upcoming releases, take into consideration other news and events not on the calendar to determine which EAs to run for the week and when to start and stop them. We tell our clients how to do this in the Success Guide for each EA so they are not just dependent on our analysis.

Meat Seasoning Rub Recipe

I rarely do outdoor grilling so I use this rub for regular cooking. I have used it on beef, chicken and fish and was very pleased with the enhanced flavor it adds. I even used it for seasoning chicken before adding Alfredo sauce. Again, the results were great! Now, it is a regular staple in my kitchen.

This came from a Woman's Day magazine that I subscribe too.

Paradise EA set up with No Hedging and FIFO closes


With 71 customizable inputs, the Paradise EA can be set up to trade in a myriad of ways.
Some Forex Brokers do not allow hedging (Buy and Sell trades open at the same time on the same currency pair) and may also require a FIFO close (with multiple open trades the trades must be closed in the order they were placed so that the oldest trade closes first), the Paradise EA can handle that effortlessly.
