I am still working, earning a high wage, and collecting Social Security benefits at the same time. I am looking for ways to plan and minimize my tax impact. I am an experienced and active stock and option trader with a 401K account, two traditional IRA accounts, and a cash margin account for frequent trades. Should I consider a ROTH IRA account with after-tax money to trade and accumulate funds without paying taxes on short-term gains, even though I would eventually have to pay taxes on the gains when I withdraw them? At age 68, should I start a ROTH IRA, and is it too late for 2023 ROTH contributions?

How should I report the capital gain from the sale of a house purchased in 2008 for $96,000 and sold in 2023 for $200,000, when the gain is divided among three siblings, and my system does not allow me to change the total gain of $104,000 without using a code and making a negative adjustment?

I haven't received my 2021 tax refund yet. I filed my taxes last year and received my 2022 refund, but not 2021. I checked IRS2Go and it said the refund was received but not approved yet. How can I check the status of my 2021 refund and what should I do if I can't access the information online?
