Disclaimers
Price Impact is the change in a token price that is directly caused by your trade and reflects how much total liquidity is held within the Liquidity Pool that you are trading. Price Impact is directly correlated with Liquidity in a Liquidity Pool, the more Liquidity held, the lower your Price Impact may be and vice versa.
Below example highlights under 0.01% Price Impact.
Price Slippage is the change in token price between the expected price and the executed price that you receive. Slippage is therefore the change from what you expected to receive to what you actually received when executing a Swap.
During market volatility
Due to a lack of liquidity
The below example highlights the minimum you can expect to receive based on the Slippage that may occur during the Trade executing. This would highlight a potential maximum amount of slippage occuring of 1.52 USDC Tokens.
Expected Output: This will likely be the amount you receive on your trade
Minimum Received: This will be the minimum amount you receive if there is slippage when executing your Trade.
You can adjust your Slippage settings to reduce the % of Slippage during Trades. If a Trade experiences Slippage that is higher than your Slippage Settings, the Trade will revert and cancel.
If your Trade causes a price impact that is over 5% you will not be able to execute the Swap unless you turn off 'Safe Mode'. Turn off Safe Mode by clicking on the Settings button and then toggling off 'Safe Mode'.
