Do you have to report every stock transaction when you file your taxes? I have bought and sold many stocks in 2007 (and lost a lot of money because I was so inexperienced). I want to know if I am going to have a hard time filing my tax return..

I wouldn’t call it hard, but it’s tedious. Yes you have to report every sale.
