You said: "Several experts at the big six accounting firms believe that when a Trader in Securities (who qualifies for this status - check with us) elects mark-to-market accounting treatment all their trading activity should be reported as ordinary gain and loss on Schedule C not Schedule D. This appears to consistent with the IRS regulations, code and the new act wording."

Do you mean that Schedule C reporting is or is not consistent with regs, code and the act?

If Sch C reporting is consistent (or is required for trader in securities), are the stock transactions capital assets qualifying for exclusion from SE tax?

Thanks.
