Thanks; I appreciate your help, but am still confused. What is mark to market election? I wasn't even aware of that. All I asked is how, as a day trader, I am supposed to enter my taxes into TurboTax. It's confusing because there are two different parts of my return, which TurboTax doesn't seem to connect: the personal side, where my trading wins/losses are recorded, and the business side, where my expenses are recorded. Please advise as to the technical nuts and bolts of using TurboTax when reporting income as a day trader. As I said in my initial note, I am used to simply answering the questions and being prompted to the right result by TurboTax. However, I do not have confidence that that will happen now that I am a day trader. Thanks.
