1099B entries in box 8,9,10,11. How do I enter these?

My 1099b has entries only in boxes 8, 9, 10, 11. How do I enter all these boxes. Turbo Tax only wants box 11. Is that correct?

to enter 1256 results only the amount on line 11 has to be entered.

If you had a loss, enter it as a positive number in the loss box, otherwise enter it in the gain box

You can use "futures"  as "description".
