## Normal slippage
Around news, market open, close, low liquidity and price gaps, market orders may execute at the next available price.
## Warning signs
Slippage only against the client, stop losses widened often, profitable orders rejected, platform cannot provide execution records, or support replies only with templates.
## Evidence to keep
Save order ID, quote screenshots, execution time, server time, instrument, size, stop settings and exported trade history.
## Comparison method
Compare multiple quote sources at the same time. Do not conclude from one trade only. Repeated samples matter more.
