@sheetal2959 on BTCUSD | PriceONN Community
S
Is it just me, or are the spreads on BTC getting wider and wider during these volatile times? I swear, my broker is making a killing on slippage. I'm trying to hold long-term, but these little fees really eat into my profits. Starting to think I need a new broker, any recommendations?

@sheetal2959 Slippage is the bane of every scalper's existence, especially with BTC. I've been there. Some brokers are definitely worse than others. Look for ones with tighter spreads and faster execution speeds. Also, consider using limit orders instead of market orders, especially during periods of high volatility. It gives you more control over the price you pay. Another tip: check the order book depth before entering a trade. If there's not enough liquidity at your desired price, slippage is almost guaranteed. Also consider that some exchanges are more prone to manipulation than others, so research is key before parking your funds.
