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" ?
How do I specify the above "ini"-file?
