Terry, you can only deduct the commissions once ... when calculating your gain/loss on Schedule D. Any other account fees, asset management fees, etc. can be deductions on Schedule A to the extent they exceed a 2% of adjusted gross income ("AGI") floor.

Commissions generally are part of the capital asset. They go on Schedule D when you report your trades there.

Commissions generally do NOT get deducted elsewhere.
