Hi,


1, Is there a public change log where the Strategy Community is informed of changes made in the new releases?

2. Platform changes that could impact strategies are broadcasted somehow? I never receiver anything so far.

3. How can I make sure my strategy is not affected by platform changes?



Regards,
mosu_d

Hi there,

The answer to your 3 questions:
We use to publish the release notes in the forum section dedicated to that but it is not the case anymore. I understand that it is a mandatory thing for serious users to follow up changes and keep track records. From now, we'll publish the release notes related to visual Jforex platform. For the API and Jforex platform you may already found the needed information in the release note sections.

We can not guarantee 100% the same behavior of a strategy before and after a given upgrade. We strongly recommend users to test thoroughly their strategies before going Live.

Ok, thank you Amine.

Could you elaborate on what it means to
thoroughly test a strategy?

Besides making sure the strategy behaves as expected and no errors are raised while executing it. Are there special events to catch / handle?
Is there a video presentation on this? Last time I checked 90% of the video presentations were for beginners.

Thank you,
mosu_d
