To enter Gains/ Losses info on Form 8938, here are the steps:

 

in TurboTax online,

  • Sign in to your TurboTax account and select Pick up where you left off
  • At the right upper corner, in the search box, type in "foreign assets" and Enter
  • Select Jump to foreign assets
  • Follow prompts
  • On screen "Amounts Related to Foreign Financial Assets", enter info under Gains/Losses

Per IRS, there are two types of foreign financial assets: 1) Foreign Financial Accounts; and 2) what the IRS calls "Other Foreign Financial Assets."  On the form, you will be asked about each type separately because the IRS requires different information for each type.
