FXNook Vendor Guide

Updates & Version Rules

Vendors are responsible for maintaining their products after approval. This page explains how updates work, how versions should be managed, and when re-verification is required.

Why Updates Matter

  • Fix bugs and technical issues
  • Maintain compatibility with MT4 / MT5 updates
  • Improve stability or logic (without misleading changes)
  • Protect customer experience

Version Numbering Rules

Update Type Example Version Verification Required
Bug Fix v1.0 → v1.1 No (Quick Check)
Minor Improvement v1.1 → v1.2 Partial Review
New Features v1.x → v2.0 Full Review
Strategy Change Any → New Major Mandatory Full Review

How to Submit an Update

  • Upload new compiled file (.ex4 / .ex5)
  • Keep FXNook Licensing unchanged
  • Update version number clearly
  • Add a clear changelog
  • Do not remove existing features without notice

Best Practice

Keep updates backward compatible whenever possible. Breaking changes should be released as a new major version.

When Re-Verification Is Required

  • Core trading or calculation logic changes
  • Risk or money management changes
  • Licensing behavior changes
  • Performance claims updated

Warning

Uploading major changes without declaring them may result in delisting or temporary suspension.

Impact on Existing Customers

  • Updates are provided to existing customers automatically
  • License validity remains unchanged
  • Major changes must be clearly communicated
