+## Strategy changes
+
+As strategies now have to support multiple different signal types, some things had to change.
+
+Columns:
+
+* `buy` -> `enter_long`
+* `sell` -> `exit_long`
+* `buy_tag` -> `enter_tag`
+
+New columns are `enter_short` and `exit_short`, which will initiate short trades (requires additional configuration!)
+
+### webhooks - `buy_tag` has been renamed to `enter_tag`
+
+This should apply only to your strategy and potentially to webhooks.
+We will keep a compatibility layer for 1-2 versions (so both `buy_tag` and `enter_tag` will still work), but support for this in webhooks will disappear after that.
