Slippage protection refers to mechanisms or settings that shield users from unfavorable price changes between the time a trade is submitted and when it is executed on a decentralized exchange. It allows users to specify a maximum acceptable percentage deviation from the expected trade price. This safeguard is crucial in volatile markets or for large orders, where prices can move significantly during transaction processing. It helps prevent unexpected losses for traders.
Context

Users often adjust these settings to balance transaction speed with price certainty. Future developments will likely involve more dynamic and intelligent slippage protection algorithms, potentially integrating predictive models to offer optimal trade execution in rapidly changing market conditions.
