Sorry, but I don't have any great ideas. However, you might check to be sure that your capital loss carryovers are being applied to either short or long-term gains. If the carryover is for long-term losses, it must be applied to current long-term gains. Same for short term losses/gains. Then, you end up with an overall capital gain or loss. Also, I think I've seen losses on some forms shown as having a minus sign (-), or sometimes a positive number in (parentheses). Can be confusing. Good luck.
