Colin - thanks. I just read through the Fairmark article on wash sales. Seems the easiest way to go is simply to not trade any stock for which I had a loss in the last month of this year for the first 31 days of next year. However - if I wanted to go the "mark to market route" would this make things easier ?

Thanks Colin -

Gorcon

Colin - one last question (for today*) - if I had a loosing trade on Sept. 1st, and then bought the same stock back Sept. 2nd, and then sold this position tomorrow - would I have to wait the full 31 days before buying it back again - or could I buy it back Jan. 1 ?

Thank You -

Gorcon

What is "SECA" tax? Anything like FICA?
Thanks
