# Price slippage
Price slippage refers to the difference between the expected price before a transaction is executed and the actual price at which it is executed.
Slippage happens due to the dynamic variables of the Bancor AMM formula. Every transaction changes the price slightly. The larger the transaction size of a token relative to its liquidity depth, the higher the price slippage. When you see the "price slippage" message, you are still able to proceed with your transaction. This is not an indication that may cause the transaction to fail in any way. If you wish to convert tokens, you may proceed.
You may also set a custom slippage percentage ("Slippage Tolerance") to make sure that any transaction with higher slippage will revert. This is available by clicking at the top right menu next to your wallet.

## 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://support.bancor.network/bancor-amm/trade/price-slippage.md?ask=&goal=
```
`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.
