Slippage refers to a trading phenomenon where the trading point placed by a customer is different from the actual trading point. \x0d\ \x0d\Many people know what slippage is, but they don’t know how slippage occurs. Some people say that the market changes greatly, so there is slippage; some even say that it is impossible not to have slippage. In fact, this is not correct. The correct statement is that slippage is either intentional on the part of the dealer, or the dealer's service cannot keep up. This problem is explained in detail below: \x0d\ \x0d\ (1) Traders deliberately slip \x0d\ \x0d\ Foreign exchange trading is different from stock and futures trading. Stocks and futures are matched transactions, while foreign exchange trading is done by customers through the platform. Transactions are made with the bank, and the bank makes transactions with the customer. The bank has a net position. Through slippage, the transaction price is not favorable to the customer, and banks and traders are profitable. Some banks even privately agree on slippage sharing when signing cooperation contracts with traders. Of course, some traders do not push their customers' transaction bills to the market. At this time, slippage is more beneficial to them. \x0d\ \x0d\Extended reading: Why does the platform slip and delay: Detailed explanation of the MT4 virtual backend plug-in\x0d\ \x0d\ (2) Slippage when the service cannot keep up\x0d\ \x0d\Generally speaking, foreign exchange transactions It is the bank that provides the quotation to the dealer, and the dealer provides the quotation to the customer. When a customer makes a transaction, the transaction order reaches the dealer's server and is then forwarded to the banking system, where the transaction is completed. Due to forwarding, the quotes provided will be partially distorted. When the market is strong, slippage is inevitable. \x0d\ \x0d\So by improving services, it is possible to avoid slippage, but the cost is very high\x0d\ \x0d\First of all, the server must be good and the application software must be advanced. In addition, and most importantly, the dealer's quotes come directly from the bank and there is no forwarding. Data transmission comes directly from banks, and the investment costs for both parties are high. In addition, banks charge rent from traders, which is extremely expensive. Ordinary traders (even regular traders) find it uneconomical and are generally unwilling to do so.
