Colin can the margin interest be deducted without margin payment ?

Can the margin interest be itemized as a annual investment expense charged against that year's investment (dividend etc.) income ?

The alternative appears to be clumsy , which is full payment of the margin balance and using the margin interest (including past years ?) as a interest expense ?

The annual margin interest calculation as a itemized interest expense seems more reasonable - is it acceptable to the IRS ?

Thanks in advance,
Jim
