It depends on how much of your assets are invested in the market. And on how you're handling cost basis. And if you are carrying forward any previous losses. And how long you've held the asset. And... well, you get the idea.

well I'm not handling cost basis, Financial Choice is. and they're not sharing any of that AFAIK. which makes this confusing. Especially with the comparison here and on their home page, to a checking account.

Sounds like if the market is green I'm paying a hefty free for every single checking transaction

I think the tax filer max the ultimate decision on cost basis, not the financial institution.
