Hi,

Using API ITesterClient in DEMO account, I see very few differences in order entries with those 2 different codes:
- submitOrder(...,amount,price,0) //slippage=0
- submitOrder(...,amount,price,10) //slippage=10

Has slippage a realistic effect in API Tester ?

Thanks for support.


PS: I tested a large nb of orders.

It's the same as if you run your strategy in DEMO or LIVE accounts on a JForex
