How the Wash Sale Rule Traps Active Traders

from The Tax Strategy Podcast with Fexingo: Tax Planning, Deductions, and Saving Money on Taxes · host Fexingo

Episode 55 unpacks the wash sale rule — a tax provision that disallows losses on securities sold at a loss if you buy a substantially identical stock within 30 days. Lucas and Luna walk through a concrete example of a trader triggering the rule unintentionally during a volatile quarter in June 2026. They explain tracking the 61-day window, how it interacts with tax-loss harvesting, and the surprising impact on ETF trades. Perfect for anyone who manages their own portfolio and wants to avoid costly IRS adjustments. #WashSaleRule #TaxLossHarvesting #ActiveTrading #IRS #CapitalGains #PortfolioManagement #ETFs #TaxStrategy #Investing #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TaxTips #StockMarket #TraderTaxes #TaxPlanning #DividendReinvestment #CostBasis Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
