Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@PAGB Yes.  From a cash standpoint, you lost $500.  On your taxes, you'll see a $500 Cap Gain, and a $1000 Contract/Straddle Loss, for a $500 loss.  If you're using a version of TT that let's you get to Forms mode, you can walk through all the forms to watch the $1000 make its way onto the 1040.
