Hi,
I am a citizen of India and came to US in April 2011 with spouse & kid.
Understood that I ve to file as resident and gng with married filing jointly.
My question is:
I did mostly intraday trading in stocks and options in India spanning from Jan-Dec 2011.
I have around 400,000 INR loss equivalent to around 8000$.
1) How should I report this in Federal filing. Have around 5000 records in excel sheet.
2) Since these are intraday transactions might have same stocks bought/sold within 31 days. Is Wash sales apply for me?
3) I have 2 brokerage accounts. So I tried consolidated these transactions and got to a total capital loss incurred. So is it fine to sum up all these group by brokerage account and mention it in Schedule D.
So in this case 2 records in short term loss and attach the transactions in separate sheet.
I am confused over here. Request to please guide me.
