no, you stay at maximum of 2
This is correct. Specifically the "Major Curse" class feature is what increases it to 3. Oracle Archetype never grants you this class feature, so you don't get it's benefits.

One question, when im Cursebound 2 that means I have both the first curse and the second correct?
Assuming that you are meaning the stage levels of the Curse. Yes. They are cumulative.
Your oracular curse lists the specific effects of being cursebound, which are cumulative as your curse progresses.
Meaning that if you are Cursebound 2 you have the effects of both the Cursebound 1 stage and the Cursebound 2 stage.
Many of the Curses have redundancies (redundant Conditions or typed penalties) and the rules for redundancies still apply. So Ash Curse giving Fire Weakness 2 at Cursebound 1 and Fire Weakness 5+level at Cursebound 5 would not stack (redundant Conditions), and Bones Curse giving -1 Status penalty to Fortitude saves at Cursebound 2 and a -2 Status penalty to fortitude saves at Cursebound 4 also do not stack (penalties of the same type).
Tempest Curse giving Electricity Weakness 2 at Cursebound 1 and a -2 circumstance penalty to ranged attacks at Cursebound 2 would both take effect.
