    Tax form entry for Futures / Options trading

    OK, so I see I can use IRS form 6781 to report the gain / loss on futures contracts. My main question now is if I can report gain / loss on options trades as one entry, or if I need to line item each trade. As far as capital gains go, are options and equities taxed at the same rate...

    Tax form entry for Futures / Options trading

    I trade futures and options exclusively at different brokers. The futures broker mailed a 1099B with a monthly P&L of all trades. The options broker mailed a trading summary with a total cost basis and proceeds. As I made at least 1000 trades last year, how will I enter these figures on the...

    IB TWS Exporting Trades Question

    Does anyone know of a way to export MATCHED trades via IB TWS or account management in Excel format? CyberTrader Pro has a handy function that allows you to export your matched trades, but all I can find from IB is individual executions, nothing matched. Thanks in advance.

    Will you stay with Cyber/Schwab if they only offer per trade pricing?

    That is not accurate. SSPro will have CME data.

    Short-term trading with Oscar

    I think it's ridiculous to criticize Oscar for having a few bad weeks. Every trading system is going to have draw down periods. Part of the business.

    IB Customer Service

    I did sign up for the IPE, but I still can't see the COIL symbol. I guess I'm not the only one frustrated about this. I do get the QM futures quote, but I wanted to see the CL index also. I guess I'm out of luck with IB on this issue. They're not all bad by any means, but improvement with...

    IB Customer Service

    I've been with IB for 6-months, and for the most part I'm happy with the service, but dealing with their customer service can be very frustrating. I just called to ask why a specific NYMEX index symbol - CL - isn't working. The rep basically told me he doesn't have any idea, doesn't know whom...

    So nobody's heard of of CYG? I guess that's not a good sign.

    Cyg, Llc

    Has anyone heard of this equity-trading firm based out of New York? If so, are they a standard prop shop that requires a capital contribution? I'm asking because I ran across a job posting they advertised, but I can't find anything on the internet about the company. Thanks
