Terms used on this page

Total trading cost (all-in cost)
Total trading cost (all-in cost) is the selected-side cost of one order at a given size: the fee plus half of the spread plus the price impact, in bps and USD.
Bid-ask spread
The spread is the gap between the best bid and the best ask, in basis points (bps) of the mid price. A market order pays half of the spread.
Slippage (price impact)
Slippage (price impact) is the extra cost of an order that fills through more than one price level, measured beyond the best quote. A larger order has more price impact.
