Skip to main contentWhat Is Slippage?
Slippage is the difference between the expected price of a trade and the actual executed price. This happens when the market price changes between when you submit and when the trade executes.
Setting Slippage Tolerance
Tap the info icon on the swap screen to adjust your slippage tolerance.
Recommended Settings
- Low liquidity tokens: 5-10% slippage
- High liquidity tokens: 0.5-1% slippage
- Stablecoins: 0.1-0.5% slippage
Why It Matters
- Too low: Your transaction may fail if price moves
- Too high: You may get a worse price than expected
WARNING: High slippage on liquid tokens can indicate price manipulation or MEV attacks.
