## What it means

Every leg carries a floor. If the market moves past it during execution we stop rather than deliver less than promised.

## Common causes

* A volatile pair moved between quote and execution.
* A conversion leg had thinner depth than quoted.

## How to resolve

Re quote and accept again, or raise `policy.max_slippage_bps` if a wider band is acceptable. Funds are never partially delivered because of slippage.
