1256 Contract

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A 1256 Contract is a term used by the Internal Revenue Service to denote any regulated futures contracts, foreign currency contracts, non-equity options, dealer equity options, and dealer security futures options. They are marked to market at the end of the tax year and treated as dispositioned (i.e., "closed"). Any gain or loss from a 1256 Contract is treated for tax purposes as 40% short-term gain and 60% long-term gain.
