To use Auto Slippage Tolerance, set the
slippageBps parameter to auto when
calling the DFlow Swap API’s Get Quote
or Get Intent Quote. The DFlow
Aggregator will then determine the slippage automatically.How Auto Slippage Works
Auto slippage calculates an optimal tolerance using factors such as market volatility, liquidity depth, and network congestion. This reduces the chance of failed trades while minimizing potential negative price impact.Auto slippage values are continuously updated server-side by the DFlow
Aggregator, so they reflect the latest onchain conditions.
Sequence of Events
- A trader submits a swap via the API or UI.
- DFlow evaluates market conditions to determine the optimal slippage tolerance.
- The swap is executed with this calculated tolerance, maximizing execution probability while protecting the trader from excessive price movement.
