I have a client who has expenses he paid to RagingBull for seminars / advice on stock purchases.  Can these be claimed as management fees?

Training, office expenses etc would only be allowable deductions if he is reporting his stock trading activities as business income (like a day trader might, if they do not make the election to be treated as on capital).  If they are capital transactions, then only advisor fees, accounting fees, and management fees paid to a stockbroker would be considered carrying charges and thus deductible.
