Join Robert Green to learn the golden rules for eligibility for TTS. You can claim TTS for all or part of 2021 and 2020. TTS traders can deduct business, startup, organization, and home office expenses, whereas investors cannot.
TTS traders should consider a Section 475 MTM election for 2022; it's too late for 2021. Section 475 trades are exempt from wash sale loss adjustments and the capital loss limitation, and they are eligible for the 20% qualified business income (QBI) deduction. QBI excludes capital gains.
