For some reason it only adds -2,629 to 2018 column and 0 in 2019 column. None of my numbers changes during review process. Doesn't seem correct.

What type of carryover loss are you working with?

On the income page The 2019 column shows the carryover to 2020 (not your current loss for 2019).  Schedule D doesn't actually show the carryover amount. To find your  Capital Loss Carryover amount  you need to look at your  return schedule D page 2.  Line 16 will be your total loss and line 21 should be a max loss of 3,000.  The difference between line 16 and 21 is the carryover loss for next year.
