<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 21408223, member: 101855&quot;]It used to be that way years ago, but not now. I&#039;ve discussed this issue with two accounts and gotten the same answer. You have got to have X number of transactions to qualify as an &quot;investor,&quot; and then you can offset the gains and losses. I have never had &quot;X&quot; defined for me. </p><p><br /></p><p>Years ago, if you showed that a certain area had generated income for you, you were in the clear. Now the answer is &quot;NO!&quot; </p><p><br /></p><p>It really ticks me off. My father would buy a stock and almost never sell anything, even if it was going bad. He was definitely not a &quot;dealer&quot; in stock. Yet stacks get capital gains treatment, which is better than coins, and the write-offs for losses.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
