Slippage occurs when an order is executed at a price different from the expected price.Most CFD trades are executed at the best available market price at the time the order reaches the server. Because prices can change rapidly, especially in volatile markets, the final execution price may differ slightly from the requested price. Slippage can be positive or negative.

Execution Basics

Q: How are trades executed?

When you place a trade, the order is sent electronically to the trading system for execution. Depending on the instrument and market conditions, execution is performed using market execution or instant execution methods.

Q: Why was my order rejected or filled at a different price?

Orders may be rejected due to insufficient funds, volume limits, closed markets, low liquidity, account limitations, or technical issues.Orders may be filled at a different price because execution occurs at the best available market price, which may differ due to market volatility, liquidity conditions, or execution latency.
