FAQ

Questions you may have about our day trading accounting services.

When does day trading become business income vs. capital gains?

The CRA both look at frequency, intent, holding period, and time committed. Most full-time day traders end up reporting as business income - which changes deductions, loss treatment, and entity strategy. We make the call with you and document it.

Do you help with setting up a corporation?

We can help you setup your corporation, or sole-proprietorship. If you're looking to incorporate in other countries, reach out to us and we'll see how we can assist you with this as well.

Ready when you are

There's a lot of complexity around day trading when it comes to record-keeping and tax. We'll help with this.
