# Orders and trade settings

## Slippage

Slippage tolerance is the maximum execution-price movement accepted by the trade. Higher slippage can help execution in fast markets but increases the risk of a poor fill or adverse execution.

Use the lowest practical value for the market's liquidity and volatility. A trade can still fail if the quoted route changes before execution.

## Gas and priority fees

The spot panel displays a gas control, and TrenchView provides advanced quick-buy settings. Higher fees can improve inclusion speed but do not guarantee execution or profitability.

## Price impact

Price impact estimates how much the order itself moves the pool price. It is different from slippage tolerance. Large impact is a warning that the order is large relative to available liquidity.

## Expected output

Expected output is an estimate based on the current route and pool state. Review the final minimum received or maximum spent in the transaction prompt.

## Open Orders

The Open Orders table can include venue, market, order type, direction, original size, remaining size, order and mark price, value, expiry/time-in-force, and wallet.

## Cancel or replace

When controls are available, cancel an unwanted open order before placing a conflicting replacement. Confirm whether part of the order already filled.

## User settings

Profile settings can store network-specific trading preferences for HyperEVM, Solana, and supported outcome markets. Review saved settings after switching device, wallet, or network.
