I started this new thread:
--------------------

I discovered that I got different results when backtesting on 2 different computers so I started to recreate and sync the history files for both computers. That did not help, it seems that the strategy tester uses (and reuses) a special file with the suffix .FXT. The help files mention "Recalculate" as an option but I cannot find where this setting is specified.
No button, No dropdown field, Nothing.

The help files also mentions some kind of ini-file where this and other settings can be changed. Cant find that one either. Found many ini-typ files but none with a content similar to what is shown below.

The help files says under "Settings of the Strategy Tester Launch"

Example:

; start strategy tester
TestExpert=Moving Average
TestExpertParameters=ma0.set
TestSymbol=EURUSD
TestPeriod=H1
TestModel=2
TestRecalculate=false
TestOptimization=false
TestDateEnable=true
TestFromDate=1970.01.01
TestToDate=2006.06.06
TestReport=MovingAverageReport
TestReplaceReport=false
TestShutdownTerminal=true


How do I force "Recalculate" ?

-------------------

It is a simple and straightforward question on how to control "Recalculation". It got moved in to this very long and very general discussion and is now buried on page 37 of 38. When clicking on the original link where it says "Moved" I do not end up on the actual entry, just get redirected to this thread. I got one answer and it did not really pertain to my question, rather it was a general comment on strategy testing.

I do not think very many people who reads my initial posting will take the time to search this 38 page thread.

This habit of moving postings is very annoying especially when the forwarding link does not point to the actual original posting. Very annoying
