Hi,
I am just wondering how the future prices have such slippage on limit or stop orders. Makes me wonder if they are using old computers. Do they make any profit from this?
Just curious,
Tradersword

Hey Tradersword,

Stop orders can have slippage because they usually are market orders, so it really depends on how liquid the product is you are trading and your size.
Limit orders have no slippage, could you clarify what you mean with that?
