Professional investor/trader status

I am based in Bern and got classified by the tax office of Bern as a commercial investor and the tax and AHV can go up to 55% in Bern:

  • I work 100% as an engineer
  • I have almost 150trades per year
  • I did not keep every stock/ETFfor more than 6months
  • I have had leverage money
  • the total volume of trade was maybe about 3-4 times of the capital

I wrote this just as a warning for others, as I got asked to do..
