Apparently I have to do form 6781 for, “Gains and Losses From Section 1256 Contracts and Straddles” because I bought and sold options on SLV. This is such bullshit. Taking shit itt for not just buying physical.

I like the part where if you electronically file and use a summarized 8949 you have to PHYSICALLY mail them your 1099B with form 8453 even though they REQUIRE BY LAW that the brokerage send the 1099B to them anyway. Stupid fucking boomers thing it’s more authentic if you print it out and mail it? Why does it fucking matter at all?

I didn’t even fucking know that but I’m mailing anyway because this shit is complicated and I don’t want algorithms scrutinizing it.

I don’t even know what straddle means in this context but clearly SLV is just a bunch of futures contracts and not fucking physical silver

Just remember that all of your crypto gains are taxable, but loses are not deductible.

You could just import the forms from your broker into Turbotax and let it do it for you.

It’s impossible to know if this is a “straddle” or not, SLV is a black box

The net outcome is that it’s just like any other capital gain, just more annoying

How much are we taking here? Why not just report it on a schedule D and let do? IRS just wants their money.

It’s on there, but I needed to categorize it as something.

Contracts marked to market

Vs

Straddle. Which who knows if that applies but that’s the closest answer.

Vs

other options

No other nation on this planet has the complex tax system of america...the tax return industry pays congress to make sure that filing taxes is extremely complicated....the entire govt has adopted this business model...the management is deliberately making rules and processes more complex because it slows down the workers
