# How to change slippage

Price slippage refers to latency-induced price fluctuations, resulting from market dynamics between the moment in which you submit the transaction and the time which the swap is executed. \
\
By default, the cap on price slippage is set to 0.5% on Penguinswap. \
\
This means that with a slippage of 0.5%, you could receive up to 0.5% fewer tokens than expected on the preview swap screen depending on market conditions. \
\
Note that you can opt to change this value by clicking on the cog in the upper right-hand corner.

Then you may toggle from 'Auto' to 'Custom' to select a desired max slippage value.&#x20;

The maximum slippage will now be reflected on the Swap screen.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.creditcoin.org/dex/general/how-to-change-slippage.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
