Accidentally triggered a wash sale for not selling my full 30 days worth of purchases. Realized this and sold the remaining 30-days worth 15 minutes later. Will this clear the wash sale?
So I bought several shares of VTI in February and, given the market downturn today, I had a nice little short term loss to realize. I decided to sell these and buy VOO instead.
Well I forgot that I also acquired VTI in late January as well, and I didn't sell those originally. I realized this about 15 minutes later and sold the remaining January shares. But it seems as if the damage was done, everything I sold in the first sale was a wash.
Is there anything that can be done to fix this?
