Taxes
I will be paying my taxes next year as an individual, not a LLC, etc.. so how much (%) will I owe on my federal taxes for income earned from daytrading emini futures contracts?

Is this considered capital gains, or investment income?

I looked on irs.gov briefly, and I couldnt find this exact info.
