Macuser-22, I may have originally contributed more than $250 in my traditional IRA account in the 1990s. i  bought stocks with the original contribution money, and of course i lost money because of the bad stock. All i can tell now through my fidelity investment record is that I have about $250 balance in my traddional IRA in 2015.

 

I do not have any record of this original traditional IRA contribution, what should I put down on line 2 of 8606.

Thanks



Zero.
