Let it elapse, and receive complimentary re-take would be my suggestion, as it sounds like you have positive P&L. Rushing it may cause unexpected DD.

I see huge improvement in spreads. One of my favorite pairs, GBPAUD, was normally 6-7 pips all of Asia session on old server, getting it at 2.2 now.

It seems their return to normal spreads takes longer than most ECN's so the liquidity pool is likely low. Good info for me if i pass the challenge.

Hey Guys,
I was testing and checking how the spreads were today and they seem pretty god imo, Had some sells at GJ and EJ today and everything worked fine, but! be careful!, I had like 3 other positions afterwards during ASia session, and I was using a tight stop, price went to it passed beyond and never stopped me out! So I closed them manually, I Just did another test right now with min 0.01 and it went beyond my SL again without taking me out, so I had to close the trade manually in loss once again. SO if you are those that Like to leave limits and be out without following your trades, try to be checking that thing to avoid losing more than expected if you happen to get this same issue Im having rn after updating to their new server.

Over 7 pips pass SL (GU) - actually, NO stops were respected this morning.
