Why not try trading biotech? It's a lot like swing trading, but with a longer horizon, from one to nine months. I try to take a position with a relatively good risk profile (I have about ten or twelve criteria I use and I do mean "relatively" because biotech is anything but safe) and trade the run-up to study results. It's essential to be rigorous on picking "safe" plays, and get out fast if anything doesn't play out as expected. I concentrate on stocks under $5 that the pro's cannot invest in. When something looks good, I will go in with from $25K to $150K bet. Don't be hesitant to take a loss when you need to.
A whole lot of people are playing this game, so you can't be greedy. However, you should be able to see consistent gains of at least 50% annual return on what you've invested. Note, I say "what" you've invested. I try to never be more than 50% invested in biotech at any one time. Hold 50% in bonds or cash and the other 50% use for active trading. So if you have a $1M portfolio, you should be able to generate $250K/year from it.
Last year I made over $250K and this year I'm up about $280K, mostly from MNKD.
