An appreciation in a foreign currency creates a foreign exchange gain when the foreign currency is to be received. A decrease in the value of foreign currency creates a foreign exchange gain when the foreign currency is to be paid. (Hoyle, Schaefer, Doupnik, 2009, pp. 328)

The point of the FOREX Foreign Exchange is to invest money from one type of currency to another in hopes to make a gain and profit from a certain currency rising in value. Money can also be lost in these type of exchanges when the currency you brought has went down in value.
The Mark-To-Market gain or loss from trade date to settlement date will reflect any move in the currency's value over the period.
Unrealised gain on foreign exchange refers to the increase in value of foreign currency assets or liabilities that has not yet been realized through an actual transaction. It occurs when the exchange rate moves favorably, leading to a potential profit if the currency were sold or converted back to the home currency. These gains are recorded in financial statements but do not impact cash flow until the assets are converted. Thus, while they reflect potential profit, they are considered "paper" gains until realized.

Currency exposure occurs when you could make a loss (or gain) from an FX rate changing. For example, If I had a bank account in the UK with GBP10,000 when I am a US investor, should the Sterling FX rate change then that will affect the current US Dollar value, so I have a currency exposure.
It is an unrealized gain / loss. It is a restatement of the value of a balance in a certain currency, in relation to the base currency of the balance. Realized gains / losses are for 'finalized' transactions, such as outstanding vendor amounts paid or customer amounts received and there is a loss or gain realized at that point. (this happens when there is a big fluctuation between the date the transaction is executed and the date the money changes hands)
