    NASDAQ ENERGIES vs NYmex and ICE

    again, it simply states that a company does not have to roll losses forward but if they chose to, the accounting method or calculation they use to calculate the loss in the year must also be used in the future year....in other words you cant switch from accrual accounting to cash accounting...

    i am sure there is a way to offset trading losses against income he earns as a contractor provided that he also trades professionally through the ltd. so he can take his proceeds as a contractor to leverage up on trading if he does it properly. lastly...if it flops and for some crazy reason he...
