What sectors normally are the most volatile and can result in quick gains in short periods of time? I'm guessing oil and energy are both good short term picks but are there others?

Solar is the most volatile, in my opinion
Huge swings, either way
YGE, LDK, FSLR, STP, CSUN, HOKU, etc

Not that I know of.. There are three "clean energy" ETFs that seem to be heavily weighted in solar stocks, however
PZD, PBD and PBW
All three invest in solar and all three look very bullish to me
