A short term capital loss will first be used to offset capital short and then long term gains. Any amount remaining offsets combined income in an amount up to $3,000. Any remaining loss is carried over to the next year.
if you have both net short term and long term gains the ordinary losses will first offset net short-term gains and any excess of ordinary losses will then offset long-term gains and qualified dividends.
