Slippage Modeling

OLTA incorporates real-time and predictive slippage modeling to adjust pricing and enforce eligibility

1. Slippage-Adjusted Pricing

All asset prices used for NAV and rebalancing are adjusted based on simulated slippage at trade size benchmarks (e.g., $10k, $100k).

2. Venue-Aware Execution Modeling

Execution is routed primarily through high‑liquidity, Tier‑1 CEXs (e.g., Coinbase, Binance) for tighter spreads and operational security. DEX routes are blended when cost-effective.

3. Exclusion Based on Slippage Thresholds

Assets that consistently fail slippage tests (e.g., >1% for $10k notional) are excluded from indices to preserve investability.

Monitoring & Adaptation

  • OLTA’s slippage models are recalibrated regularly based on trading data, volatility, and evolving market structure.

  • Risk dashboards provide live transparency into effective depth and modeled slippage for each asset in the index universe.


These mechanisms ensure that OLTA indices remain robust, transparent, and scalable even in a fragmented and fast-moving DeFi environment.
