Edit file without swap or backup files, in one command

Is it possible to :edit a file forcing Vim not to create
any swap files or backups? Something like:

enew
setl noswapfile nobackup
read ++edit #

but in one command? I have tried

:edit ~/my/file +set\ noswapfile

but it creates a new buffer called '~/my/file +set noswapfile'.

Thanks,
Life.
