There is not limit to long-term losses that you can net against long-term gains. You can, however, deduct losses from ordinary income, up to $3000, if you don't have gains to net them against. It's an important distinction since most of use pay a much higher tax rate on ordinary income than on long-term capital gains. Flexo: The Fortune Magazine link is a little misleading.
