You don't lose the loss, its just delayed. if you had a loss of $500, bought back the stock within 30 days, you can add that $500 loss to your cost basis of the current purchase. e.g. if you sell the 2nd purchase and have a $1000 profit it becomes a $500 profit; if you have a $1000 loss it becomes a $1500 loss. Hope this helps.
