@dawndawn You are telling me it's only $3000, someone else is telling me $10000.
PLEASE READ THE ORIGINAL QUESTION CAREFULLY.
I am not referring to deducting $3,000 of capital loss carryover against regular income.
I am referring to a case where I have leftover capital losses, and then in a later year I have net capital gains. How much of the gains can be reduced by my leftover capital losses from a prior year?
