Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thx for your reply!

So if I understand wash sales effect of options based on this entire thread

SPY and SPX options do not have a wash sale rule effect and any losses experienced are carried over to the next trade and will offset gains if any are made? 

Options traded on specific stocks, like Telsa Apple or Microsoft, will be effected by wash sale rules when trading these options regardless of strike price or expiration date of the options being traded.   So if a loss would be taken after selling an options contract on a specific ticker, the best course of action would be to wait 30 days before trading any options on that specific ticker again?
