What it means is that there are differences between the value (in your
home currency) assigned when you created each transaction, and the value
now (because you have added new exchange rates), and you haven't added
transactions to record (realise) those changes.
More specifically, the *total* (across all your transactions) of those
differences has changed (you could think up an unlikely situation where,
say, the change in value of your transactions in one currency is exactly
balanced by the change in value of another currency).
To realise those gains/losses you need to enter balancing transactions,
one per ("foreign currency") account, every time you add a changed
exchange rate.
If you want to record every daily change in exchange rate then perhaps
you should learn a little about accounting. There is plenty of material
on the Web.
