A useful XAU breakout journal records the Asian range width, the range as a percentage of the 14-day ATR, the session of entry, the named macro driver, whether the entry was a retest or a chase, the spread at entry and the outcome in R.
Tagging by session, range regime and retest-or-chase lets you segment win rate and average R after thirty trades, which usually reveals that the strategy is profitable in one specific session and condition.
Automating capture through an MT5-connected gold journal keeps the log alive past the point where manual journals die, leaving only the judgement fields to complete before each weekly review.
