Uniswap Swap Simulation

Overview

This skill covers simulating Uniswap swaps, calculating price impact, and analyzing routing decisions.

Key Concepts

• Price Impact: The change in pool price caused by a swap. Larger swaps have higher impact.
• Slippage: Difference between expected and executed price, including price movement between submission and execution.
• Routing: Finding the optimal path across pools and protocols for best execution.

Simulating a Swap

Use the Quoter contract to simulate swaps without executing:

import { createPublicClient, http, encodeFunctionData } from "viem";
