Hello! Welcome to The Sun's Financial Diary, where you can find out how I save and invest. If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for daily updates. You can also follow what I am doing on Twitter :) Thanks for stopping by!

Did you trade stocks or ETF/mutual funds in 2008? If you did, do you find it’s sometimes confusing about your investment cost basis, taxes on capital gains, or capital losses carry-over? It wasn’t easy for me at tax time a few years ago when I first started to trade stocks while using pen & paper to file my taxes. If that’s the case, then maybe a free e-book, Taxes & Trading, from TradeKing can give you a little help. In this e-book, you can find tips on topics such as:

Know your tax terminology
Set up your positions in Maxit Tax Manager
Watch out for wash sales
Tax ramifications of establishing your trading as a business
Fee your Retirement Account
Consult your tax guy or gal – early an often

Sounds interesting? Use this link to request your free e-book and it will be sent to your Inbox right after you entered your email address. Plus, it looks like there’s an extra bonus together with the email. In the email I received, it contains a link for a $50 bonus when opening a TradeKing account with $2,500 minimum deposit and making a trade. TradeKing did have similar promotion in the past, but not right now. So if you are looking for a little incentive to open a TradeKing account, you can get it know together with a free e-book
