What is Slippage?

The gap between quoted and executed price.

Slippage is the difference between the price you see and the price your swap actually executes at, caused by your own trade moving the pool plus other trades landing first. It grows with trade size relative to pool depth.

Practical rule: check a token's liquidity before sizing a trade. Aggregators like Jupiter split routes across pools to reduce it.
