I have $6000 investment interest expense between 2018 and carryover from 2017. if I use standard deduction, would it all carryover to next year?

Review your form 4952 to see if investment interest is being carried over.

Thanks for answering.  You are correct, most investment fees and expenses are no longer deductible, but the investment margin/interest expense still is.  And it can be carried over if not used, as shown in form 4952.
