- Dec 26, 2021 · 3 years agoAs a representative of BYDFi, I can provide you with some general guidance on calculating and reporting taxable income from crypto day trading. It's important to note that tax laws vary by jurisdiction, so it's always best to consult with a tax professional or accountant who is familiar with the specific regulations in your country. In general, you should keep track of all your trades, including the date, time, and value of each transaction. You should also record any fees or commissions paid. When it comes to reporting your taxable income, you will need to determine the cost basis of your cryptocurrencies, which is typically the fair market value at the time of acquisition. You will also need to calculate your gains and losses for each trade, taking into account any applicable deductions or exemptions. It's important to maintain accurate records and report your income honestly to comply with tax laws.
