Yes, you are connecting to BF's servers all the way around the world thus the extra delay. You can get a VPS there.

Thank you - i only trade the Tennis on my Australian wallet anyway and i dont trade intra point so its just a minor anoyance and thought it may be a setting thing but if your saying when i use my Australian Wallet then im connecting to a server in Austalia somewhere rather than the UK where i am based then it makes sense

Thanks

Also, consider the cost in getting a VPS if that's really what you need. For me, with ~~300ms, I can live with it.

I was wondering what the speed of the fastest serve is, relative to how fast a market can change regarding the 300ms delay.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqmy9oxEJig 263kph serve

A serve at 263 kph is 263/60=4.3833km per minute so 4383 meters per minute and 4383/60=0.07305kph=73.05m per second. A tennis court is 23.78m long according to Wikipedia when I checked. So dividing the distance by the speed, gives us the time from baseline to baseline: 23.78/73.05= 0.3255 seconds or 325ms.
I'm going from the just inside the half way point to just outside half point on far side to keep distance close to full length ;)

300ms should be good as long as serves don't start going over 290kph frequently, now that's tennis I'd watch! :D
