Who else here sold the peak?
I've been treating this like a game, not selling the peaks and buying back the dips is like turning off your old playstation after forgetting to hit save.

I'm pretty new to all this so only put in a small amount to test the waters (also i'm a poorfag). Started the week with $170 and finished on a comfy $460. Waiting for tax time so I can drop a few grand in now that I know what i'm doing.

A lot of it is just staring at charts but I did also have a sell point, which happened to be just below what I sold at. Almost got greedy and held, glad I didn't.

Shit, meant to say my sell point was just below what it peaked to. Had most of my money in GNT but also some in ETH and LTC.

Is it?

"After a sale is identified as a wash sale and if the replacement stock is bought within 30 days before or after the sale then the wash sale loss is added to the basis of the replacement stock. The basis adjustment is important as it preserves the benefit of the disallowed loss; the holder receives that benefit on a future sale of the replacement stock.

Example: Some time ago you bought 80 shares of XYZ at $50. The stock has declined to $30, and you sell it to take the loss deduction. But then you see some good news on XYZ and buy it back for $32, less than 31 days after the sale. You can't deduct your loss of $20 per share. But you add $20 per share to the basis of your replacement shares. Those shares have a basis of $52 per share: the $32 you paid, plus the $20 wash sale adjustment. In other words, you're treated as if you bought the shares for $52. If you end up selling them for $55, you'll only report $3 per share of gain. And if you sell them for $32 (the same price you paid to buy them), you'll report a loss of $20 per share.

Because of this basis adjustment, the wash sale rule usually does not have a significant impact. In most cases, it simply means you'll get the same tax benefit at a later time. If you receive the benefit later in the same year, the wash sale may have no effect at all on your taxes."
