    Canadian Taxes on Equities? Will they consider trading as business income or capital

    I wouldnt even worry about all that.just declare the 3k loss as capital loss and then next yr you will have this as a credit to your gains.if you are worried then declare as income then you will have the full 3k as a carryforward loss instead of 1500.simple!!

    Grains & Softs

    you could also look at hogs and cattle. To me they are more understandable for a newbie than the the others because they are more NA based so you dont have overnight worry as much as the others.that is changing of course with asia. also read up on trading spreads.good luck!

    Can Canadians open accounts at US retail firms?

    I think delaware is the top pick if i'm not mistaken.Why would you want to do that though? If you are trying to get around paying taxes don't bother. revenue canada will know,trust me.If its just a retail account just open it in canada.
