The front cinch should be about as tight as your belt – if it’s comfortable for you it should be comfortable for your horse. Do not overtighten the cinch because the tighter you cinch, the more pressure you create before you even sit in the saddle. While it’s tempting to overtighten a cinch for a saddle that rolls – don’t do it! Check that the saddle is the correct fit for the horse. Try a different saddle pad (make sure you aren’t over-padding), a wider cinch, neoprene cinch, or flank cinch to help secure the saddle.
