$3,000 is correct from my experience, even carry forwards from previous loses can only be $3,000 loss write off per year max on a filing FMU. Not Cool!!!
For instance you could have $156,000 loss, but can only claim $3,000 per year on it. Good years trading, its nice to have a carry forward on taxes, or just a write off. But it is never a good feeling to lose money and have to have a write off!!! LOL!
