In 2014, the individual had $1,000,000 of Sec. 1256 gains and $300,000 of other long-term capital gains from selling physical gold. In 2015, the individual has no capital gains or losses. In 2016, the individual had $150,000 of Sec. 1256 gains and other long – term capital gains of $85,000. In 2017, the individual had $200,000 of long-term capital losses from the sale of stock.
