Here, let me help you:

Paper loss = Paper loss (unrealized loss)
Paper gain = Paper gain (unrealized gain)

Selling within a "paper" loss is a realize loss.
Selling within a "paper" gain is a realized gain.

So, until you sell, it's just a bunch of 1's and 0's on some hard disk somewhere that you can't use to buy food, clothing, or shelter.
