TuringTrader Account Types

　　TuringTrader offers two main types of accounts for investors: Taxable Accounts and Retirement Accounts.

• Taxable Accounts:
• Also known as standard brokerage accounts, these allow investors to deposit and withdraw funds without restrictions.
• Any income earned through interest, dividends, or gains on investments sold is subject to taxes in the year received.
• Capital gains tax is generally lower than regular income tax if assets are held for over a year.
• Retirement Accounts:
• Designed to save for retirement, these accounts may have contribution limits and penalties for early withdrawal.
• Contributions to 401(k) accounts and traditional IRAs are made with pre-tax money, while Roth IRAs are funded with after-tax money but allow tax-free withdrawals after five years.
