# Set Slippage

To streamline trading, you have a default slippage value which is applied to all orders. This is initially 5%, and can be updated via the Set Slippage button on the Trade interface.

You will be prompted to provide a new slippage value, between 1-100:

Upon submitting this form, your default slippage will be updated. This will apply on all future orders, however can be overriden per-order via the Slippage Override field on the order form.

We recommend leaving this value at a minimum of 5%, to prevent orders getting stuck.
