Hi,

I had done some critical initialization within the top level constructor implementing IStrategy.

I noticed that the constructor seemed to be called by JForex twice or even 3 times sometimes. I put in a static counter to verify this. Is this a bug or is this by design? JForex API ver. 2.6.71

Normally one would expect a constructor to be called only once, but this may be by design.

Workaround: So I moved all of my initialization to the onStart event, and this is called only once on strategy startup.

Just wondered whether this was a well-known behavior to watch out for?

Thanks!

It is a platform feature.
