That's what the purpose of the line 

export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_myapp" 

The terminal (shell) creates a "yellow post it" of this (WINEPREFIX) and then wine, winecfg, and, I guess, winetricks check for this "post it" (variable) when they are run. Re-read the 1st reply to the post and further explanation later on.
