strategy Tester .ini files

 

hello mighty brains of the mql4 forum. I am testing my EA and started getting different results just by changing the name of the EA. I found this to be rather odd. No code changes just did a "save as" to a new name and compiled. Test results were very different.

I strated looking around and found a file in the tester folder that had the bame of my original EA with a ".ini" suffix.

I removed that file and the two versions were back in sync getting the same results.

 

Can anyone explain this?
