VectorVest traders' short-term profits, by default, are taxed at the highest incremental individual IRS income tax rates.

When you qualify yourself to take the tax position of "Trader Status" and, optionally choose to make the "Mark-to-Market" accounting method election then you can file taxes just like other taxpayers all over the country who have lowered their federal income taxes by thousands of dollars every year.

Most traders who do qualify have saved more in taxes each year than all the fees paid for the VectorVest system, all their computer equipment and such.

Tax planning methods to help active traders (legitimately) eliminate problems with expensive tax rules, wash sales, net operating losses, even allowing a full deduction of the VectorVest fees which otherwise might not be deductible on your tax return
(see IRS Code Section 274(h)(7)).

 

"Trader Status" is also recognized by most States and can lower those taxes as well.


While you are here, be sure to read about the additional, sophisticated tax benefits available when trading through an entity.


Look around my web site and if you do your own taxes, give this tax position some thought.  If you'd like assistance with your tax planning, compliance work and tax return preparation of federal and state income tax returns, please contact us to become a client.
