Actually, everyone understands that most failed trades are not "the chain broke," but due to their own shaky hands.
Just now, I wanted to save some gas on L2 and casually made a swap, but the slippage was set too tight + the pool depth was average, I even confirmed twice, and on the second confirmation, the price was hit and taken away...
Stuck there watching the prompt "Transaction Failed," I was dumbfounded.
Looking back, it’s: don’t hesitate during those volatile seconds, if your order placement is half a beat slow, you’ll just get educated;
If you really want to be precise, first check the depth, don’t treat small pools as big ones.
Recently, during airdrop season, task platforms are messing with witchcraft + point systems again,
The grab-and-go folks are competing like it’s a job, I’m still here nitpicking the slippage for a failed trade, forget it...
I’ll try again tomorrow, first adjust the parameters wider, don’t be hard on myself.
