Points; negative = price improvement, positive = worse fill.
Every broker does; the question is how much and in which direction. On 724 measured fills, TMGM (TradeMax Global)'s median slippage was 16.0 points. The fill-quality split on this page shows what share of orders filled at a better, exact or worse price than requested.
Yes — negative means price improvement: your order filled at a better price than you requested. A median at or below zero with a short positive tail is the profile you want. Positive slippage concentrated around news events suggests the broker passes volatility straight through to you.
