Slippage from A to B better than from A to A, how?

 

I would like to copy a signal. My account is with ICMarkets.

When I compare 2 signals, the one that is NOT icMarkets has a better slippage than the one located at icMarkets.

4018 x 0.26 slippage from RoboForex-MetaTrader 5 to ICMarkets.

627 x 0.68 from ICMarkets-MT5 to ICMarkets.

How is this possible?

Its possible, as you can see in your slippage tab different servers of the same broker can have very large difference in slippage too.

So, in many cases a server of a different broker can be a better choice that one of your own.
