I found a value of address which display same number of date in game(steam version of Princess Maker refine1), So I tried to change this value but It won't be changed.
I heard that If I can break and trace from the display value instruction to the instruction where the actual value is kept.It would be possible to find genuine address.
Is there any tutorial which has any example of finding genuine address by making use of break and trace in cheat engine?

That's a lot easier than it sounds. You'd need to be incredibly lucky or have intimate knowledge of reverse engineering.

Do an unknown initial value and changed/unchanged scans for all value types. Maybe you'll find the real value.

I'm almost certain that scanning for unknown values is both easier and faster than what you're trying to do, but if you insist, start learning x64 / x86 assembly and very basic reverse engineering knowledge. Using that knowledge, you can look at what writes to that address and figure out where it comes from.

There's no tool that will do this for you. Break and trace isn't even that useful except for moving up the callstack.
