BRIC nations are better options if you are planning to invest in any foreign stocks.. Even Mexican stocks are good. This is the right time to invest as all stocks of these nations are currently at their low.. Buy before the rally starts back again..
Best of luck with it.

Not at all. There will be plenty of opportunities in some foreign markets including some small markets in the next 10 years.
We will have permanent structural shift in the world economy. As a result of this some markets will perform better than other markets in the future.

No. You'll never lose more than what is in your account. With proper stop loss and take profit ( that's like a limit order) sets you should not have a problem. The FX markets are so huge (as in volume) that when the price hits your sets you will get an immediate fill. There are rarely anything like gaps and slippage. This is something you find in stocks or futures markets. But don't hold a position over the weekend if you can help it, when the markets are closed. If something happens over the weekend and when the markets open this could result in gapping. Although rare.
