If I buy and sell a non-equity option (i.e. 1256 contract) in the same calendar year does that realized gain/loss show up in Part I or Part II in form 6781?

assume it is a 1256 contract.

Don't check any of the checkboxes and enter the gain or loss from Line 11.

That is all.

 

It will appear on Part !.
