If you qualify to take advantage of these laws, the impact on your income tax situation is dramatic.  Let’s look at an example.

Stock Trader A  has the following trading results.  In year one, he makes a $100,000 profit, and pays $35,000 in taxes.  In year two, he doesn’t do quite as well and actually loses ($100,000). In year two he can only deduct a $(3,000) loss, and can not carry back the remaining  capital loss against last years gains or taxes. He broke even in his trading activities over a two year period, but has paid over $30,000 in taxes to the IRS, therefore he is really down $30,000.

Stock Trader B is a Daytradertax client. He had the exact same trading results as Trader A. Trader B however,  can deduct all of his ($100,000) trading losses in year two.  He can offset his spouses salary and all other types of income. If he has losses left over, he can even go back and amend his first year’s tax return and get  those taxes back. His tax bill for the same period is $0.00.  He is truly even.  Plus, his tax bill in year one was less than the $35,000 paid by Trader A, because he could write off all of his expenses against his profits, which Trader A couldn’t.
