Why can even small orders incur high slippage?

Many traders believe that only large amounts of capital entering or leaving the market can noticeably affect execution prices.

But in real trading, even an order that doesn't seem particularly large may incur execution costs far higher than expected.

The reason is:

A small order amount does not mean market liquidity is sufficient; the existence of a quote does not mean you can execute at that price.

To understand slippage, you first need to understand four key factors.

1️⃣ Order book depth: The price you see may not have enough quantity avai

Why do different stablecoins carry different risks when transferring the same $1?

In the Web3 world, many people think of stablecoins as “dollars on the blockchain.”

Since stablecoins such as USDT, USDC, and DAI generally aim to stay close to $1, shouldn’t they be more or less the same?

Not quite.

Stablecoins may have similar price targets, but their issuance mechanisms, reserve assets, redemption terms, market liquidity, and smart contract risks can differ significantly.

A price close to $1 does not mean the risks are the same; being transferable on-chain does not mean a token can always

$ONE bulls are feeling the pressure! A $1.2899K long liquidation at $0.00182 highlights the risk of excessive leverage in this market. The immediate support zone is around $0.00180–$0.00182, while resistance is near $0.00185–$0.00189. 🎯 Downside targets: $0.00178 and $0.00174. Stop-loss: Above $0.00191 for a short setup. A breakdown below support could invite another wave of selling, while a strong reclaim of $0.00189 could shift momentum toward buyers. Keep an eye on volume

Does a positive funding rate mean that long traders are definitely making money?

In the crypto derivatives market, there is one data point traders often use to gauge market sentiment: the funding rate.

When the funding rate turns positive, some believe the market is bullish and longs are making money; when it turns negative, others believe the market is bearish and shorts have the advantage.

But this interpretation is not entirely correct.

The funding rate reflects the periodic payment mechanism between longs and shorts in a specific perpetual contract. It does not reflect the profitabilit

What is the funding rate? Why do long and short positions in perpetual contracts need to pay fees periodically?
In crypto trading, perpetual contracts have no fixed expiration date, so a mechanism is needed to keep the contract price as close as possible to the spot price of the underlying asset. This mechanism is the funding rate.
First, what is the funding rate?
The funding rate is a fee that long and short position holders in perpetual contract markets periodically exchange according to platform rules. It is usually related to the contract's price relative to spot and to market supply and d

Could Jensen Huang really fall for a Chinese honey trap?

“U.S. intelligence assessments believe Jensen Huang was romantically involved with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive suspected of gathering intelligence for China.”
NVIDIA previously said the two had normal business dealings

Now xStocks check-in points have been drastically reduced, to about one-tenth of what they were before. These airdrop points are pretty good too: just hold SP500 for long-term gains. And if there’s an airdrop, that’s a nice bonus.

Starting an AI GTM agency from scratch in San Francisco at 35, while also caring for a newborn—I have to hand it to you. During the day, you’re dealing with clients, breaking down sales processes, and keeping product implementation on track. At night, you’re getting up to feed the baby and change diapers. A lot of decisions get made in those stolen moments at two or three in the morning. Living and hiring in the San Francisco Bay Area is already expensive, and a startup can’t bring on a big team right away, so every dollar and every hour has to be carefully budgeted.

$UAI is attracting attention following short liquidations near $0.14637, indicating that sellers are facing pressure. The next important development is whether buyers can maintain momentum and establish a higher low. A clean reclaim of nearby resistance could signal further upside.
Support: $0.140 – $0.146
Resistance: $0.150 – $0.156
Next Target: $0.162 – $0.170
If price breaks above resistance with strong buying volume, the bullish continuation setup becomes more convincing. Watch for confirmation.

U.S. stocks sold off sharply on Thursday, November 5 (UTC). The Nasdaq closed down around 5.5%, entering correction territory, while the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunged roughly 12%, with chip stocks including $NVDA and $AMD posting steep losses. Beyond profit-taking, investors are growing concerned about the pace of AI data center construction, capital spending, and future returns on investment. The key question now is whether the AI sector’s lofty growth expectations need to be repriced. Where do you think the next opportunities will emerge: chip stocks, tech giants, or other sectors?
