# Switch ALE from 1inch v5 to 1inch v6 Router
# Proposal to switch FiRM’s Accelerated Leverage Engine (ALE) to the 1inch v6 Router
Forum Post: https://forum.inverse.finance/t/switch-ale-from-1inch-v5-to-1inch-v6-router/432
## Summary
ALE allows users to leverage up and down positions on FiRM, using a DOLA flash mint. This proposal seeks to switch the router used in ALE from 1inch v5 to 1inch v6.
## Background
ALE was launched on FiRM in [November 2023](https://www.inverse.finance/governance/proposals/mills/155) using the 0x Swap API router, although due to poor routing for many of the collaterals on FiRM, this was soon [switched to the 1inch v5](https://www.inverse.finance/governance/proposals/mills/158) router given the significantly better trade outcomes for users.
## Objective
The 1inch team [launched the new v6 router in March 2024](https://blog.1inch.io/1inch-announces-a-significant-upgrade-swaps-and-limit-orders-now-up-to-16-cheaper/), with the main improvements cited as being gas optimizations:
* Up to 16% gas reduction for the most common trades
* Limit orders are 14% more gas-efficient
* RFQ-like orders are 3% more gas-efficient
Utilizing 1inch v6 within ALE is expected to save some gas for FiRM users.
## On-Chain Action
* Set exchange proxy of ALE to 1inch v6
