Brokerage is like E-trade right? How do you claim your losses and wins on your taxes. Like if I lost money through bitcoin.

If you sell, you should receive a 1099-B form with loses and gains. Your income tax bracket matters. If you are in the 10 or 15% tax bracket, you are not liable for any taxes on capital gains.

Yeah I sold mine because I am ignorant. I wanted to see I got my money back and I saw that you are paying 3 dollars to buy and sell. I still have money Etheruem. So I am learning. I want to try etrade to get used to it.

One thing I like about Edward Jones is that I am less likely to go through the hassle of withdrawing because I would feel stupid. So I am less likely to take money out of a roth.

Met with a financial advisor to talk about my 401k. I'm upping my contribution from 6% to 7 and most likely 8 next year.
Didn't realize that 43% of my 401k was in the company's stock and was actually down for the year. I think I'm going to roll with a target date fund as it seems more conservative and better planned out. 53% is in that but I'm strongly considering adding far more than 53%. |

Being honest with TD Ameritrade makes things boring. Can't short anything and can't take options positions that aren't covered.

I wouldn't do more than 10. They had that at Cabela's when I was there and I figured if they were doing that well, I would be able to extract more money from them through payroll rather than 401k. Whether that's right or not, I don't know. They also had an ESPP that I could get stock at a discount, so I did do some of that. |

Just make sure that the fees (expense ratios) are reasonable. You really shouldn't be paying more than 1% in fees, so if it's much higher than that, you might want to reconsider your options. |

I wrote them and they have a section where you can apply for higher tier status for options trading other than covered calls. Might require like $2k in a money market it looks like. |

No brokerage firm allows average investors to take unlimited loss positions with shorting stocks or naked call writing without substantial equity of usually $250,000. Not unusual. |
