You can always double up now while everyone else is selling and then sell the original position early next year. It doesn't help this year's tax bite, but helps next year's tax planning knowing you already have booked some losses. I have had modest success doing this. A few times the stock returned to the profitable level before I had the chance to take the loss. Of course I won't mention the times that the strategy backfired. <g>
