+
+          This release adds full Docker support for easy deployment.
+
+          ### Quick Start
+
+          **Using Docker Compose:**
+          ```bash
+          git clone https://github.com/Xe138/AI-Trader.git
+          cd AI-Trader
+          cp .env.example .env
+          # Edit .env with your API keys
+          docker-compose up
+          ```
+
+          **Using pre-built image:**
+          ```bash
+          docker pull ghcr.io/REPO_OWNER/ai-trader:VERSION
+          docker run --env-file .env \
+            -v $(pwd)/data:/app/data \
+            -v $(pwd)/logs:/app/logs \
+            ghcr.io/REPO_OWNER/ai-trader:VERSION
+          ```
