Here's another wrinkle on the Paytrading method. Use pairs to trade.
Maybe a stock that moves quickly vs an ETF like FCX vs XLB. Purchase a specific dollar amount of the stock and short an equal dollar amount of the ETF.
Advantage: More volatile movement with a relatively neutral position as the two equities offset each other.
Disadvantage: Double commissions, sector may get blasted for an extended period.
