    tax question for those with 100's of trades year end

    tax season is over about month ago. my approach for 2005 is simple as it was for last N years.write down proceeds(provided by your broker),substract your PnL from it and put this number as purchase price. purchase date is 1/1/2005, sale day-12/31/2005. one line on your tax form.pay your taxes.
