Slippage CL

I am new to trading CL and just experience 15 tick slippage on sell stop order which was sent to exchange about 1 hour before being filled.

Is this normal?? Seems crazy.

Was it around 9:30 CST ?

If so it was due to the EIA report coming out, it's like NFP for CL.
 
I guess u try to learn from this..and watch the reports schedules when u trade stuff like CL or other commods. :p

what was your stop entry order for? what what was your fill?

CLG4 - order was for 93.30 short stop but got filled 93.15.

I have noticed slippage 1 tick or stop orders but sometimes i get positive fills as well.

Thanks guys.

My mistake - i might have to turn bots off around data events.

Definitely around the inventory report. I've seen price just plain gap 50 ticks on that report.
