Kirk-Tax Selling

So... Does tax loss selling end 3 days before the year ends? When is the last day you can sell your losers and book a tax loss for 1998?

The last date you can sell and book a tax loss for 1998 is December 31st. My understanding is your sell order has to be in before the end of the year and the settlement date three days later does not matter.

Please keep in mind I am just a farmer who has a moose for a best friend and not a tax professional.
