To change the Darth Vader background on ToS, at the Login screen (before logging in) click the Options button. The Start Options screen will open and you can choose from Black, White or Metal backgrounds.

Forgot to say that any LT or ST capital gain distribution from any source (including the IC) would be able to offset a LT or ST capital loss c/o.

I think I can answer your capital loss c/o’s questions, although, as usual, there are no black and white responses. Much depends on the type of entity formed to conduct the activity, such as a Ltd Partnership, LLC, C-Corp, etc. Typically, the majority of the income distribution flowing from the IC entity to the member would be investment income/loss (= ordinary, similar in nature to dividends) with the remaining distribution split between LT and ST capital gain/loss and dividends. The entity will probably be considered a trader for tax purposes which will generally preclude a capital classification to the transactions = no capital gains/losses, except for any gains/losses on index option transactions. There are a host of other tax considerations that come to mind, but too lengthy to get into now. 😉

Thanks for the clarifications on sign ups. There are lots of people I can send your website address to.

Ever read “Mastering the Trade” by John Carter? Just starting reading it and enjoy it immensely. . Although, some of it with the Future Trading is probably a little too much for me. . You tried Future Trading once, didn’t you? Thought I remembered you still left your account open.
