I currency traded a few years ago, but did it as a business so had an accountant do my taxes who specialized in forex. Now, I went back to trading but am not doing it as a business and am doing my own taxes. Can anyone tell me where I would enter my gains or losses? It's not like I got a mailed form or anything, just the year end statement. So I'm wondering where I would enter this info? I do my taxes with HR Block tax program and tried chatting with one of their representatives but they were clueless what I was talking about when I mentioned forex. I'm guessing maybe it's part of IRC Section 1256 and I'd fill out form 6781? At least that mentions foreign currency contracts but it also talks about straddles, so I'm not sure. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
