TL;DR

WEEX Spot now supports Slippage tolerance for market orders.
You can choose from preset slippage levels or set a custom value.
The setting helps manage the risk of market orders executing too far from the expected price.
Your selected slippage setting is saved for the current trading pair.
If you are not logged in, selecting a slippage level will prompt you to log in or sign up first.

Market Orders Are Fast. Slippage Tolerance Helps Keep Them Under Control.

Market orders are designed for speed. When you place a market order, it is filled based on available liquidity in the order book.

In fast-moving or low-liquidity markets, the final execution price may differ from the price you expected when you clicked buy or sell. This difference is commonly known as slippage.

To give spot traders more control, WEEX now adds Slippage tolerance for Spot market orders. Before placing a market order, you can set the maximum price deviation you are willing to accept.

What’s New?

Slippage Tolerance for Spot Market Orders

When using a market order on WEEX Spot, you can now see the “Slippage tolerance” setting in the order panel.

This setting helps define how much price movement you are willing to accept when your market order is executed.

Preset Levels and Custom Settings

You can quickly choose from preset slippage levels, or select “Custom” to enter your own preferred value.

This gives different users more flexibility. If you want faster execution, you may choose a higher tolerance. If you want tighter price control, you may choose a lower tolerance.

Trading Pair-Based Preference

Your selected Slippage tolerance can be remembered for the current trading pair, so you do not need to reset it every time you return to that pair.

Different trading pairs may have different liquidity conditions, so managing slippage by pair can help you trade with more precision.

Why It Matters

Slippage tolerance is useful for anyone who uses Spot market orders, especially when the market is moving quickly.

Active traders can reduce the risk of unexpected execution prices.
Large-order users can add an extra layer of control before entering the market.
Users trading less liquid pairs can be more mindful of price movement during execution.
Newer users can better understand the trade-off between faster execution and tighter price control.

It does not make market orders risk-free, but it gives you a clearer way to manage one important part of market order risk.

How to Set Slippage Tolerance on WEEX Spot

Open any WEEX Spot trading page.
Select a market order.
Find “Slippage tolerance” in the order panel.
Choose a preset level, or select “Custom” to enter your preferred value.
Place your market order after confirming the setting.

No extra setup is required. Open the Spot trading page and adjust Slippage tolerance before placing a market order.

Trade Spot With More Confidence

WEEX Spot Slippage tolerance is designed to help users place market orders with more awareness and control.

Whether you trade actively, place larger orders, or want a clearer way to manage execution risk, this new setting gives you another useful tool before you enter the market.
