Hi,
I am experience a significant worsening of the '400 Bad Request' problem.
My program retrieves a few EOD stats for every Canadian exchange-listed symbol at 5PM Eastern of each day.
I already implemented the retry logic and I am already invoking get_data for chunks of 100 symbols, however it does not help - still too many retries and clearly something is wrong with the product - it's not supposed to be so flaky.
Sample log excerpt:

Any suggestions?
Also, any updates on investigation and resolution of the root cause in Reuters EIKON?
Thanks,
