I have trade some stocks in my traditional ira account in 2007 and have some short term gain. I am also holding a stock for a few years and still a loss in my ira account- I am planning to sell it. Do I have to sell it same year to net out my gain in my portfolio ? what is the tax rate for capital gain in ira account ?

n? Some of the stocks had dividends, some had profits, some losses? So how is the tax computed on the payouts? Is there anything I should be doing with this traditional IRA account to make sure that expenses and losses are taken into account correctly?
