🔍 What is Slippage? The invisible enemy of your trades! ⚠️

Imagine this: You want to buy BTC at 64,000.$ – but your trade is executed at 64,300.$ .

💸 300.$ loss – without you having done anything wrong.

That is slippage – and it affects traders every day.

📘 What exactly is slippage?

Slippage refers to the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual execution price.

It arises from:

1. 📉 Volatility – rapid price movements

2. 🕒 Market liquidity – low supply/demand

3. 🧠 Order types – Market Orders are particularly susceptible

💡 My learnings & tips:

I have experienced up to 4% slippage with low liquidity altcoins.

Since then, I use:

✅ Limit Orders instead of Market Orders

✅ Set slippage tolerance (e.g., on DEXs like PancakeSwap)

✅ Trading during quiet times – e.g., outside of news events

📊 Especially with DeFi & DEX trades, slippage is a real game changer.

Whoever ignores it loses capital in the long run – without realizing it.
