Hello everyone, I am thinking about opening a Roth IRA with a broker and purchasing individual stocks with the contributions. The broker who told me that I can contribute $2000, but my actual stock purchases cannot be for the whole $2000 since I have to include the commissions in the basis. This doesn't make sense. With my mutual fund IRAs, I purchased $2000 in fund shares and sent a separate check for the annual maintenance fee. If I were to make several stock trades during the year, how would I know how much I could buy each time? Thanks for your help with this. Peter - -
