The tax bill, simulated all year

Quarterly estimates with all 50 state brackets, NIIT, safe-harbor guidance, and wash-sale flagging — so April never ambushes you.

Simulation Only · Advanced & Premium

Know the bill before it knows you

TradeCraft runs a quarterly estimated-tax simulation on your realized net P&L: all 50 state brackets plus federal, filing-status aware, with Net Investment Income Tax and IRS safe-harbor guidance built in. It exists to answer one question all year long: how much of this is actually mine?

Quarterly estimates from realized results — federal, state, NIIT, and safe-harbor targets.

Wash sales, surfaced

Trading the same names repeatedly? Advanced plans get wash-sale risk alerts when a loss looks like it may be disallowed; Premium adds the full wash-sale detail table — every flagged pair, dates, and amounts, so nothing surprises you in February.

Stays current

Brackets change; the simulator keeps up. The built-in tax-bracket updater fetches current federal and state brackets so estimates always use the current year's numbers.

Honest by design

What it does

  • Quarterly estimates on realized net P&L — all 50 states + federal
  • NIIT and IRS safe-harbor guidance
  • Wash-sale risk alerts (Advanced) and the full detail table (Premium)
  • Current-year brackets via the built-in updater

What it deliberately doesn't

  • Doesn't file anything
  • Doesn't give personalized tax advice — it's an estimator for planning withholding
  • Doesn't handle long-term capital-gains treatment — the math here is short-term trading focused

Why: it's a simulation, and it says so — in the app and in the legal terms. Plan your withholding; let your CPA file.
