re: paperwork organization of large numbers of trades Eric P. Have just been checking your archive, looking for info on the above. Provoked by facing a weekend of entering an humongous number of trades (avoided for too many weekends) into my present system & thinking - there's got to be a better way. Currently have a spread sheet of my own invention. Only one broker. It's not strictly clean in & out, so complicated by keeping track, & keeping linear, the split trades for purpose of first in first out. I enter the trades from my broker's transaction history as they happen (in principle - now weeks behind). End of the year, I print out the spread sheets, download sheafs of Schedule D pages & laboriously fill out the schedule D. This is my 3rd year & the volume is increasing, so am getting worried. Anyone have any suggestions, it would be appreciated. As the subject doesn't seem to have come up yet as part of the interactive learning environment, I hope this is not too tangential to the main purpose of the thread! d.alexander
