Hi,

I am an active day-trader who is successfully trading stocks / options in a LLC entity. I originally funded my LLC with my own after-tax money.

I’d like to be able to invest my own 401(K) + my spouse’s 401(K) assets into my LLC, where I plan to continue trading stocks / options. How can I accomplish this without causing problems with prohibited transactions / disqualified persons / etc..?

The IRA LLC (or any form of pension for that matter) must have special language. So, most likely you can’t use the existing “standard” LLC for your self-directed money.

You mentioned that you and your spouse have 401(k) plans. If you’re still employed at the same place where you started these 401(k) plans (and they aren’t Solo 401(k) plans), you won’t be able to self-direct these plans for day trading.

However, if you have left your employ, you can do a IRA Rollover (step one of this whole process), then set up an IRA LLC, fund it with your rollover funds and trade to your heart’s content!
