I normally tie a double palomar knot when using a swivel and I have never noticed it slipping but then again I put a drop of either super glue or zap a gap on the knot most of the time unless I dont have it with me on the water. When using my conventional I tie an improved albright using a minimum of 18 turns, then cinch it tight and trim close and add zap a gap to the knot.

I like the zap a gap better than superglue but either will do.
You can get zap a gap at M&D's in Wareham.
