If you sell shares at a loss in your taxable account and repurchase them within 30 days, it’s a wash sale and the loss is deferred.

Instead, you must add the disallowed loss to the cost basis of the replacement shares. This will reduce your capital gain or widen your capital loss when you eventually sell the replacement shares. However, because you don’t pay taxes on IRA investments, you permanently lose the deferred loss on wash sale shares repurchased in your IRA
