How Can a Trader Mitigate the Risk of High Slippage on a DEX?

A trader can mitigate high slippage risk by setting a maximum acceptable slippage tolerance for their trade in the DEX interface. If the executed price deviates more than this tolerance from the expected price, the transaction will automatically revert.

They can also use DEX aggregators, which route the trade through multiple liquidity pools to find the best execution price and minimize the overall price impact.
