This update brings a major alerts overhaul, with improved existing alerts, new ones added, and it also now features closing warnings.

Changes:
- Alert System now features ‘Congestion Zone Nearby’ and ‘Congestion Zone Breakout’ entry alerts.

- Indicators load faster.
- Alert System now draws supports/resistances from their origin (opposed to the previous endless lines).
- Alert System’s drawn supports/resistances can now be customized in color, width and line style. By default, longer-term S/Rs are wider than shorter-term ones,.
