Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Various is allowed for the purchase date, but not the sale date, on this entry screen. However, if you just enter the date of the last sale it will suffice. The main purpose of these entries is to determine if your holding period is long or short-term so that the gain is treated properly on the tax return.
You could also enter each one separately but it's not likely necessary. Keep your itemized list, though, for at least 3 years on the off chance that the IRS inquires about support for this entry.
