Work out short term vs long term gains instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Most regimes tax gains on assets held beyond a threshold — commonly twelve months — at a lower rate. Comparing the tax now with the tax after qualifying shows exactly what waiting is worth, against the market risk of holding on.
Rate selection
Tax = gain × (long-term rate if months ≥ threshold, else short-term rate)
Tax figures are estimates based on the rates and threshold assumptions you enter. Holding-period rules and rates vary by jurisdiction and asset class. This is not tax advice.
Only if the market risk over the remaining months is smaller than the tax saved. A concentrated position may not justify it.
Usually from the acquisition date; some regimes use settlement. Check before cutting it fine.
