OnInit() and forward testing

[oneilljo]

When optimizing the input parameters of an expert advisor and using the forward testing option, is the OnInit() function called again when forward testing begins? (ie. when the best 25% of runs have been found and these are to be tested again on the forward testing period)

I believed it is run once every time in a pass

Check it and let us know.

After experimenting, I can conclude that Oninit() is called again when forward testing begins.

I believe so because forward testing is like a brand new test. So OnInit will be called again.

Thank you.
