Rank trading instruments from least highest to highest average return potential (without leverage and again with leverage).
For example (not in real order, just structuring example) -
Without leverage: Stocks>Forex>Commodities>Options>Futures
With leverage: Whatever>Whatever>Whatever>Whatever>Whatever
Essentially, what trading instruments provide the highest return without leverage and highest with leverage? I assume they would be the same, but I'm not sure.
Bonus: Which are the cheapest to trade from a broker fee, etc. standpoint? (Supposedly futures are cheaper to trade than stocks.)

I'm talking about trading, m8. Not investing. While I concede that proper long-term investing (although not soccer mom-tier index fund investing) beats 9,999/10,000 traders in the long run, I'm only asking about trading instruments.

>Leveraging using student loans
My econ professor in uni actually recommended doing this.
I believe options are the most profitable, by far.

category grossed me $91k over two years, with gross account contributions at 5k over the first year only.
I have index funds too. Those are pretty much flat after holding for a year.
I'd tell you to stop spitting this garbage, but it's not garbage.
The real answer is, I would say, a mix of just about everything you've listed + the incorporation of risk management in the allocation of funds.

well, luck helps.
Multiple times i happened to be in the right place at the right time looking at the right stock and making the right decisions.
Other than that, trading pennystocks is more of an exercise in emotional intelligence. "What will the other idiots do when they see this" "Sell? Buy?" Then you do it before them if you can. I would say that alone would get you far, but there's a lot more to it. Definitely throw TA* and FA out the window - for subpennies. TA is only somewhat useful in that the idiots behind the other computer screens are using basic support/resistance to plan their trades. Get out before them.
Don't get caught holding the bag but simultaneously don't miss the boat when it takes off from the train station, destination: moon.
