Slippage is the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual price at which it is executed. How it affects your trading costs

Slippage can be either positive or negative, meaning your trade may be executed at a better or worse price than you originally expected. Because it changes the execution price, it directly impacts the final cost of your trade.What causes slippage?

Slippage is a normal part of trading that typically occurs due to market conditions, such as:

• High market volatility: Fast price movements, such as during major news events, can cause prices to change before your order is processed.
• Low liquidity: When there are not enough orders at your desired price, your order may be filled at the next best available price.
• Large orders: If you place a large order that cannot be fully filled at a single price point, parts of the order may be executed at different, less favorable prices.
