Any time you sell stock, the IRS knows. File your return showing that you sold stock along with the basis. It is better to avoid a letter from the IRS stating that it was all profit and you owe money.

 

Your broker will send Form 1099B showing your transactions. You will need to enter that information into your return. You will be able to get the form online by February 18 according to the Robinhood website.
