I was selling in one account to take advantage of ST losses, and buying in another to avoid wash sale implications.

Lowered my WA by 5% and locked in much needed losses.

Not sure which was worse for my sanity, the slide after uplist or yesterday.

I'm no tax expert, but I believe the IRS frowns upon this kind of thing. Anyone know for sure?

If you did this with SLI you definitely won't be able to take any tax losses, using different accounts to sell/buy the same security is definitely a wash sale, no different than transacting both sides in one account.
