I wonder if anyone has tried trading mutual funds. I think that would be an interesting experiment, testing time periods of weeks/months.

Has anyone tried this with low entry fee mutual funds or the australian share index stock ??

The aim would be to take on market beta (with the benefits of diversification), whilst trying to get supranormal alpha through market timing & money management. It seems like you are taking unnecessary firm specific risk with individual stock trades.
