Here's what Bitget support had to say.... note their line "At that time, the price fluctuated greatly, so it was normal for the closing price to slip."..... I would be ok with a small bit of slippage but when I set my stop loss to $50 and I lose $150 I don't think $100 of slippage is acceptable!!

Dear valued customer,
 
Greetings from Bitget.

The above two orders were successfully closed after reaching the stop loss price.
The system triggers the stop loss price before closing the position. At that time, the price fluctuated greatly, so it was normal for the closing price to slip.
If you want to close the position at a specified price, you can set a limit order.
