What is the last day you can sell your stock and still report the gain or loss in the current year?
Ksmail
When determining what year you sold your stock, the trade date is what matters. This is the day the transaction took place on the stock exchange. If you contact your broker on the last trading day of the year, you can complete a sale in the current year if your broker executes the trade that day. On major exchanges, the last trading day is December 31 unless that day falls on a weekend.

How much tax should i expect to pay if i plan to sell my stock percentage and are the taxes automatically deducted upon the sale?
Taxes are not generally withheld from the proceeds of stock sales, (unless you are subject to backup withholding). A report of the total amount of the sale (not the amount of the gain or loss) is made to the IRS on a form 1099 and that must be accounted for on your return. Stock sales are generally considered a sale of a capital asset and qualify for capital gains taxation. Presuming you meet the qualifications and have owned the stock for 1 year, the Capital gains tax is 15%. if you had it for a shorter period, it will be taxed at your otherwise ordinary tax rate. (BTW, if you aren't already above the lower ordinary tax bracket...still in the 15% ordinary tax bracket...the Long Term Gain rate is only 5%).
Is the tax point for cgt the trade date or the settlement date?
Securities traded on established market. For securities traded on an established securities market, your holding period begins the day after the trade date you bought the securities, and ends on the trade date you sold them.Do not confuse the trade date with the settlement date, which is the date by which the stock must be delivered and payment must be made.Example.You are a cash method, calendar year taxpayer. You sold stock at a gain on December 29, 2009. According to the rules of the stock exchange, the sale was closed by delivery of the stock 3 trading days after the sale, on January 4, 2010. You received payment of the sales price on that same day. Report your gain on your 2009 return, even though you received the payment in 2010. The gain is long term or short term depending on whether you held the stock more than 1 year. Your holding period ended on December 29. If you had sold the stock at a loss, you would also report it on your 2009 return.For more information go to the IRS Government website and use the search box for Publication 17 go to chapter 14
