Capital Gains and Losses Reports

Your capital gains and losses are separated out by short term or long term gains. Short term capital gains are the gains and losses associated with assets that were held and disposed of in less than 12 months. Long term gains are for cryptocurrencies that were held for longer than 12 months.

Long term capital gains qualify for the capital gains tax discount within Australia. The long term capital gains tax discount percentage is 50% for individuals and trusts, and 33.33% for complying super funds and eligible life insurance companies.
