Please Is there an online firm that can deal with the accounting & tax side of the business? accountants that can work for an LLC that does trading as a business are few I think!
I'm am SO glad I found your channel. You, sir, are a true professional. I will certainly be contacting your firm to help me set up my Corp. (I relocated back to So. Fl. and the fact that you are based in the state sealed the deal. I look forward to working with you soon!
Hey Brian, I have been going down this rabbit hole of taxes and being a trader. I have not filed an LLC yet, was looking into Inc File. My question is, will I be able to write off my losses from this year if I create my LLC before the year end or can I not write off expenses until after the date the LLC was formed?
For one that’s illegal, as purposely doing that to avoid the wash sale rule is illegal. If they find out you did that you’ll fail an audit and likely pay more on tax, penalties and interest.
@@gerardmurrell9510The answer is yes, you have to already have an LLC and pay for the expenses from your business account in order to write them off as deductions. An individual generally cannot deduct business expenses without setting up a company structure that enables tax write offs. Any more in depth questions beyond that you’d need to talk with a tax accountant for more detailed info.
Hi, I have capital gains under my llc for the calendar year 2022., but I forgot to file for the S Corp election on time. My llc was registered in 2016. In 2022, I started trading under my llc. How do I report my capital gain and losses on my taxes? Thanks
Pro tip: You don't need to necessarily spend on money in things that are tax deductible, but you have no use for them. Yes, you can write them off, but you still have to pay for it, even though they are at a discounted price.
Great video, very informative. But can I ask why your shutter speed is so slow? Might be a creative choice, but for me it felt a bit distracting. Otherwise, awesome content! Keep it up!
What form do I need to submit for active trader status? I have enough volume. How much do CPA charge to file taxes? I always did myself but this year wash sale losses messed me up.
Hi. I created LLC in mid 2023 and I couldn't not be able to establish my business. In 2024, I plan to use this LLC for Day trading. If get approved, can i deduct LLC setup fee?

I have a regular job, but I trade about 5-10 trades a day. My accountant told me I need to trade more than my job? I feel like I trade more but I make more working
just a quick tip (maybe). looks like you are filming in like 60fps or a high rate. Your hand motion seems very jittery to me. 24fps is a good way to go. But maybe im just off!!
