I believe you can because it is two different accounts and you pay ordinary income tax on ira. Portfolio manager for some tech fund on this morning saying his best buy is IVILLAGE. Did you put something in his drink?

I am not a tax attorney.... But No. It does not meet wash sale rules unless you don't have jurisdiction of the other account. Hence your wife's sole IRA may qualify, but your's does not. However, as I always do, buy first, if you think a bottom is in place (and Assume the risk of further trouble, ok) in the separate account and after the 30 days erase your loss. Wash sale is satisfied. Margin sucks until complete. IVIL has found a bottom, and I wish my comment about price bottom being there had an indicator to help me but I missed it. I'd appreciate anyone's interpretation of that bottom to indicate a better signal to me (other than the MACD and OBV oversolds, since I see those so often). This oversold has been happening lately though (not ETYS yet).
