<prompt> Human: I recently sold some stocks but made a capital loss. The money is sitting in my TDAmeritrade account. I then transferred a portion of the losses 5,500 to be exact, the max allowable, to a Traditional IRA also with TDAmeritrade which I have set to convert to a Roth IRA the conversion will happen tomorrownext business day. I did the backdoor conversion because my salary exceeds the maximum IRA restrictions. Did I make a mistake? Should I have funded the IRA from my savingschecking account i.e., post-tax source, rather than with my capital losses? What are the tax implications of what I did--funding my IRA with capital losses? Any guidance would be much appreciated.  <response>: Doesnt matter at all.
