What is slippage in trading?

    What is slippage in trading?

    Slippage is the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual price at which it is executed.

    It usually happens during fast market movements or when there is low liquidity, causing orders to be filled at a slightly different price.

    Slippage can be positive or negative, meaning you may get a better or worse price than expected. It all depends on the direction of your trade and the price where the next available liquidity is to fill your trade.
