+#### Enhancements
+- **`make_addplot()`** enhancements:
+ - **support `type=` ` ohlc ` and ` candle ` (issue [#168](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/168))**
+ - support ` mav ` kwarg
+ - support `y_on_right` kwarg
+ - support `ylim` kwarg
+ - expand impact of `width` and `alpha` kwargs (originally affected only `make_addplot(data,type='bar')` plots).
+ - use `alpha` also on `scatter` plots.
+ - use `width` and `alpha` also on `line` plots (issue [#185](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/185))
+- improve default line-widths algorithm
+- rename `set_ylim` kwarg to `ylim` to be consistent with `ylabel` kwarg.
+- deprecate `set_ylim_panelB` (use `ylim` in `make_addplot()` instead).
+#### Bug fixes
+- `axisoff` and `tight_layout` should be independent of each other (issue [#180](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/180))
+- fix Spyder console block/hang when _not inline_ call `mpf.plot()`. (issues [#151](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/151) and [#183](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/183))
+- fix incorrect linestyles character for dotted (issue [#186](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/186))

+#### Enhancements
+- improvements to width adjustment algorithm (issue [#174](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/174))
+- automatic width adjustment now also adjusts `mav` lines widths. (issue [#171](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/171))

+### <a name="v0.12.5a2"></a>v0.12.5a2 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; released 2020-06-08
+#### Enhancements
+- Support setting `ylabel` in `make_addplot()` (Thank you [Andy Sum](https://github.com/AndySum) for coding.)
+- Add `saxbelow` kwarg to `set_axisbelow()`, defaults to `True` so grid lines do not show through candles, etc.
+#### Buf Fixes
+- fix `tight_layout` issue [#156](https://github.com/matplotlib/mplfinance/issues/156) (`tight_layout` not affecting Figure Title; Thank you [Markus Schulze](https://github.com/fxhuhn) for pointing this out.)
