Safari,

You are correct, that would have been the wrong section (ISO). That said, I just wrote it down wrong.

I am looking at my printed off Turbotax return now. All of the stock option sales printed off on a Schedule D attachment. It lists off the day acquired (bought and sold), sales price, cost, and Gain or Loss. Each gain was off set with a slightly higher loss, I believe taking into account the transaction fee.

Ultimately I was left with a net short-term capital loss of $31. All is well in the world. Thanks again to everyone who helped!
