Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, because the Section 475 election is unique to the taxpayer, and as you noted in your post, your accounts were not joint accounts but rather accounts held in your individual names.  Given the number of trades that were effected, you might want to reconsider whether to use the mark-to-market rules as provided under Section 475, and perhaps you already have decided against using such rules.  Section 475 is only available for eligible traders.
