Is it your primary trade?

No, it's not. I am soletrader selling some homemade stuff.

Then it is probably a capital gain as opposed to a trading gain. Do the sums for both and see which works better for you.

If you want it as an activity, make a separate set of books and report them separately, a second trade on your SA100.

Just made a few trades and want to log profits/losses properly for taxes. Any recommendations on simple accounting tools or spreadsheets?
