I have been playing around with for a bit now and my question is: is -1 - 3 pip slippage normal on navigator since I've been encountering it on daily basis and technical support could not help me with it, i just want to clarify if everyone is getting it? I understand that pip slippage is a natural occurrence on other brokers however are there brokers that claim no or reduced pip slippage. Thank you very much for your responses.

I've never had an issue with slippage.
How are you entering? market or limit/stop?

Yes, market limit/stop orders and i end up getting started at - 1 - 3 which makes it harder for me to scalp pips.

So which one is it? a market order? a stop order? a limit order?
All 3 are different.
