If I leave my money in my brokerage account and do not remove any of it, how does that affect what I put on my taxes? Is it counted as income while in the broker account?
I'm curious because I am getting a divorce and I started trading Forex after we filed. My attorney told me that any additional income I receive until it's final will be counted towards child support. So if I got a second job, that would be counted. But she is not familiar enough with Forex to know how to treat that money.
Me and my wife had already separated our accounts and split our savings in half. I used the money from my personal account to seed the Forex account. So I did not use joint money to start the account. As of right now, I have not withdrawn anything from my brokerage account.
