Are trading education courses tax-deductible? In this special (first-time) Webinar, Robert A. Green of GreenTraderTax.com will show traders how to improve their chances of an education business deduction, versus restricted investment expenses, versus in many unfortunate cases, no tax deduction or credit at all. Better tax-deductibility can significantly reduce the after-tax cost of education.

You will also learn how to operate your trading activity in the most-tax-efficient (and legal) way possible. Other topics include trader tax status, tax treatment for what you trade, trade accounting, entities, retirement plans and other tax-savings strategies.

It's also important to learn how to stay clear of tax trouble from the outset too. Learn how to spot and stay clear of tax promoters offering complex schemes involving one or more entities, promising to deliver full business deduction treatment for pre-business education costs incurred before you qualify for trader tax status (business treatment). That simply is against the tax law.
