I have found a bug in NT 6.5, if you have a GUI-changeable/optimizeable variable with the same name in more than one strategy, the GUI does not re-load the saved defaults from the script, instead it uses the saved defaults in memory from the last execution.
Example:
Strategy 1 has variable "optimizeme" set to 1.
Strategy 2 has variable "optimizeme" set to 2.
Steps:
Open strategy 1, change optimizeme from its script default of 1 to 3. Run a backtest or initialize the strategy to run/execute.
Open strategy 2, the optimizeme figure should show 2, per the script default since it is first time this strategy has been opened. However, it shows 3.
Naturally, renaming the variable in the script will solve this problem. Just thought you should be aware, unless you consider this a 'feature'.
