Get your taxes done using TurboTax
It depends. If you are trading your own stocks and bonds, this isn't considered a business. It is only considered a business if make trades for someone else and your income is derived from the commissions you make trading other people's money. Otherwise, your trades are either capital gains or losses. This is true even if you trade fulltime.
With this said, you cannot deduct any expense for laptops or monitors because these are only for personal use.
