Setting EntryHandling || EntriesPerDirection From Program Overridden by BackTest Parameters

[KBJ]

From reading the help, it seems like setting EntryHandling and EntriesPerDirection should affect the operation of a strategy.

My testing shows that changing these values...

protected override void Initialize()
{
EntriesPerDirection = 1;
EntryHandling = EntryHandling.AllEntries;
}

...does not affect the operation of the program, as they are instead overridden by the values specified as backtest parameters (see attachment).

I used the following code to verify this...

if ((EntryHandling != EntryHandling.AllEntries) // Correct settings?
|| (EntriesPerDirection != 1))
{ // No...
Print( "**** Error - Entry handling is not set to AllEntries 1" );
return; // Exit, effectively killing strategy.
}

Although I haven't tested this during live operations, I suspect it may work the same, as the same "Order Handling" properties exist in the "New Strategy" parameter selection screen.
