i am starting to trade fulltime and want to register a llc corp . I only trade futures . is it that hard to do accounting . I called a few and just to register a llc + get tax id number that cost a total of $150 i have gotten quotes of $2500 – $3500 . I have a auto business and do all my own taxes . From what i read futures you just need to report the 1099 and dont need to have details on each trade like stocks .
