# Zipline 0.6.2 Release Notes
**Highlights**
* Command line interface to run algorithms directly.
* IPython Magic %%zipline that runs algorithm defined in an IPython
notebook cell.
## Enhancements (ENH)
* CLI: Adds a CLI and IPython magic for zipline. [PR325](https://github.com/quantopian/zipline/pull/325)
> Example:
> ```
> python run_algo.py -f dual_moving_avg.py --symbols AAPL --start 2011-1-1 --end 2012-1-1 -o dma.pickle
> ```
> Grabs the data from yahoo finance, runs the file
dual_moving_avg.py (and looks for `dual_moving_avg_analyze.py`
which, if found, will be executed after the algorithm has been run),
and outputs the perf `DataFrame` to `dma.pickle`.
* IPython magic command (at the top of an IPython notebook cell). [PR325](https://github.com/quantopian/zipline/pull/325)
> ```
%%zipline --symbols AAPL --start 2011-1-1 --end 2012-1-1 -o perf
```
> Does the same as above except instead of executing the file looks
for the algorithm in the cell and instead of outputting the perf df
to a file, creates a variable in the namespace called perf.
## Bug Fixes (BUG)
* Fix alignment of trading days and open and closes in trading environment.
