Thanks. I read that post, but I have a full time W2 job - this day trading is something I do on the side.

Honestly, I wish i hadn't even dabbled in it.  It's just been a few days (this week) and i've incurred so much already, although I've walked away with $500.

If i stop immediately, and never day trade again, will that do anything ?  Or will the last 5 days of 'wash sales' haunt me and i'll have a $140k extra income on my 2022 taxes that i do next year?
