Can a capital loss carryover be used to off set a short term capital gain?
Yes, you can offset a short-term term capital gain with a long-term capital loss carryover.
However, you need to offset any long-term loss carryover against any long-term gains before you can offset any short-term capital gains.

Can a capital loss carryover be used to off set a short term capital gain?
assuming if I have $50000 carryover capital loss, this year (in 2016) I have short term capital gain of $70,000 gains, can I write off all of $50,000 capital loss? If not, what is the best way to off set $50,000? Thanks
