Perhaps not exactly "trading", but it just might be one of the shortest time frame investments you'll ever make. 
How about a portfolio competition?
Using todays price to establish opening position cost basis, the following portfolio has a minimum target of $100,000 (if everything goes wrong) and a maximum (still conservative) target of $1,000,000. (Explaining the reasons why goes beyond the scope of this friendly competition.)
Litecoin (LTC) 50%
BitShares (BTS) 10%
STEEM (STEEM) 10%
Syscoin (SYS) 10%
Nxt (NXT) 10%
PIVX (PIVX) 5%
NEM (XEM) 5%
Well see how it does. Wish me luck!
Full Disclosure: I currently hold many of these issues as long term investments (but not all at this exact time since Im still looking for a better entry on one in particular), and could purchase or sell any, at any time, and/or trade short term as well, with the weighting for this model portfolio being somewhat different from my own, where, for example, I am currently overweight LTC, BTS and PIVX.

Edit: Forgot one very small detail at the time: the price of Bitcoin. It's highlighted on the 5 min chart below.

Very cool idea. Kind of a plan I would have done myself. How is it going for you now? I guess your 10 grand has turned into something around 50 grand? How about a portfolio competition?
