I really like the first part about assuming my PF at $100k. Unfortuantely it is not that large - Maybe all the accts put together including SDRRSPs.

What you suggest makes sense but I do not think it is allowed as a profit or loss is only recorded upon disposal - So the market value does not work.

I agree with your idea in principle just like a simple business - closing inventory less opening inventory plus money taken out less exepenses.

Maybe someday - Possibly if you are incorporated and I must look into that with a tax accountant as my lawyre was unsure - I asked him about incorporating my trading enterprise - I beleive some folks have said that this idea is tricky if even allowed - I should do that as the first 200k i staxed at a lower rate - I know surgeaons incorporate themselves.
