Dennis most your advice I agree with. But the part of just writing down your conversation with the broker where you told him to sell specific shares.

What if the IRS then is shown these notes 2 years later during an audit. Who's to say the taxpayer didn't stay up late the night before and scribbled the notes at that time?

In this case, I would want clear third party verification that it WAS done. Just my 2 cents (g)
