Even though the stock does not settle for 2 or 3 days, you can sell on the last day of the year and still take the tax loss.

One more thing you should know about tax-selling. You cannot buy back that stock for 30 days or it becomes a watershed sale and the loss is not deductible.

One way around this it to sell in your taxable account and repurchase it in your IRA account.
