Hello, hoping someone can answer me this.

Over the last 8 months I have done close to roughly 100 trade thru ASX and received a moderate return around 20k, but i also have cryto back from 2017.

Lets say before the current financial year ended i have sold everything and receive 30k profit from short term trading and 50k profit from cypto. Do I still get the 50% CGT discount on the 50k from cpyto while, classified as a trader?

Why would you get a discount on crypto? How is it a capital event? It's more like gambling to me.
