Keith and all - read my last post - 99% of youse guys trades dont qualify as capital gains - I was watching my Religious channel the other day ( CNBC) and they said that in the states ya gott hold it for a year. Then again they have a complete different set of taxable guidelines for everything.

I lost in 1998 and yes I could have carried back the losses to 1997 or forward to this year where yes I am well into the black _ (no thanks to the last week)
