What is Slippage Tolerance

Slippage represents the gap between your expected transaction price and the actual price at which the trade executes, and slippage typically occurs during periods of intense market momentum or within low-liquidity pools.

To balance price protection with high execution success, Cwallet sets your default slippage tolerance at 0.5%.

You maintain full control over this setting. You can manually increase your tolerance to hedge against significant market swings, ensuring your order fills even when prices are shifting rapidly. Conversely, lowering the tolerance offers tighter price certainty but carries a higher risk of the transaction being rejected by the network.
