Taxes

hi
am I liable to file taxes if I lost 2K daytrading during 2010, with no other income? are there any benefits of filing a loss?
t.i.a

 

No you do not have to file.

 

Yes, you can carry it over to offset gains next year.

 

^this. capital losses offset capital gains. you should file so you can carry over that deduction for later use.
