Turns out, Friday the 13th wasn’t just a superstition – it actually threw us a curveball. But hey, in trading as in software development, sometimes you need to adjust your strategy mid-game. We missed our initial release date, but we used that extra time to knock it out of the park.

For our customers:
- This release introduces a new architecture that offloads work from CPU to GPU.
- We’ve implemented extensive code to handle differently scaled monitors.
- There might be minor font scaling (sharpness) issues on some scaled monitors (e.g., 150%). We’re on it and expect to resolve this soon.
