Tax question for Swedish traders

cleverton · Sun, 22 Jul 2018 12:52:26 +0000

Hi, I am from Sweden and have been using IG with PRT for a while. I was wondering if anyone from Sweden could help me out with the potential tax effects trading these CFDs have? What I don’t know is what kind of “förlustavdrag” you can make from with certain instruments. For example, I know that trading indices or individual stocks/ETFs has a 100% loss deduction (so that 10000 profit – 10000 loss = 0 tax effect), but trading Oil or other commodities has a 70% loss deduction (10000 profit – 10000 loss * 0.7 = 3000 taxable profit even if no profit was made!). So I am very reluctant to build systems around commodities because of this tax effect. My question is how are currency pairs and bonds taxed? I am looking to build systems around Bund, 10-year treasury and EUR/USD etc. Does anyone know how these will be taxed? Can I do 100% loss deductions? Best regards, Cleverton

Valuta är samma som aktieindex/aktier går att kvitta vinst mot förlust fullt ut

men osäker på bund m,m (tydigen K4 avsnitt C samma som för valuta) säkrast att fråga skatteverket

råvaror är jag ganska säker på att det inte går att kvitta förlust mot vinst fullt ut (K4 avsnitt D)

Guld? är det råvara eller samma som valuta?

men kollar du upp detta med skatteverket lägg gärna ut svaret här

Eric – please only use English in the English speaking forum. The question was asked in English so I’m sure that a reply is English will be perfectly fine. 🙂
