I always set my stop losses at around $50 but recently, for 2 trades on Bitget, I lost considerably more that my stop loss was set at. Both trades were in ‘USDT-M Futures’ and both were the PI-USDT pair. In one trade I lost $150 and the other I lost $87…

I used to trade on Bybit and this kind of thing never happened there so I’m just trying to establish why this happened on Bitget? Is it because there are not many people trading ‘PI’ on Bitget and therefore, if I’ve have been trading one of the bigger coins like BTC or ETH, it wouldn’t have happened? Or is there an entirely different reason?

When it comes to this matter then the only one will be able to answer up this issue or concern will be that Bitget itself on how the heck that SL didn trigger out at the moment that the price do able to hit it up?
Stop loses being placed and its not that just right that they will be that just simply ignoring that SL and goes through to that on which means or shows that the error is on their part. The best thing on this one is that you do able to take up some screenshots, not unless if it was that being showed on trading history that shows that SL set. It do really sucks that you have lost that more than on what you've been expecting because you have placed those stop loses. It should be seamless and accurate because even if we do say that the market is spiky but it wont be a solid reason for them to have that kind of error. They shouldnt have done to put up those tools if it wasnt that working in the first place. So the best thing to do now is to contact Bitget and tell them about your issue or concern on how the hell the price did push through and it causes up for you to lose more. If ever they've seen up some bugs then it could potentially that you might be getting some compensation but of course dong expect too much because most of the time they wont be giving out such amount.

Sometimes the liquidity is not enough.
You must think about others who trade with millions / billions, what if they get stopped out? You think all the position of 100M$ will be closed at an exact price EX: $100,000 BTC? Obviously no, and if you think that is a yes, learn more because it is impossible for such amounts to be filled at an exact price without the price really moving..
