Workflow diagram
Decision flow
The shortest useful route through the topic before you test it in replay.
- 01What happened that day
Election hedging drove gold to a new ATH the week before. Solid example of event-risk premium.
- 02Why this session is worth replaying
All-time high sessions tend to compress information into a short window. The move that develops in the next few hours often becomes the dominant context for the rest of the week. Replaying it candle-by-candle forces you to make decisions before the outcome is visible, which is the only honest way to practice these conditions.
- 03What to focus on during the replay
Pick one job before you start. Are you practicing entries, stop placement, target logic, or the discipline of skipping a trade that does not meet your rules? Trying to learn everything at once tends to dilute the lesson.
- 04How Candlune fits this session
Candlune lets you replay the historical XAUUSD session candle-by-candle, place simulated trades, draw levels, and let the journal capture the trade automatically. The dataset covers the full 2021–2026 XAUUSD history this page references.

Why this session is worth replaying
All-time high sessions tend to compress information into a short window. The move that develops in the next few hours often becomes the dominant context for the rest of the week. Replaying it candle-by-candle forces you to make decisions before the outcome is visible, which is the only honest way to practice these conditions.
More detail
Reviewing the same session from a finished chart is almost useless for execution. The high and low are obvious, the reversal looks clean, and your mind quietly assumes you would have caught it. Replay removes that hindsight and exposes what your process would have actually done.
What to focus on during the replay
Pick one job before you start. Are you practicing entries, stop placement, target logic, or the discipline of skipping a trade that does not meet your rules? Trying to learn everything at once tends to dilute the lesson.
- Mark the prior day's high, low, and close before stepping in.
- Identify the session's pre-event range or trend bias.
- Pause before each trade and write the reason for acting.
- Place stop and target before advancing the chart.
- Tag execution mistakes separately from strategy losses.
More detail
Mark higher-timeframe context first, then step into the session at a pace that lets you think rather than react. Write a one-line reason for any trade you take before you advance the next candle.
