Definition
An MEV strategy where a bot places a buy order right before your swap and a sell order right after, profiting from the price impact your trade creates. You end up getting a worse price while the attacker pockets the difference. Using private mempools or MEV-protection tools like Flashbots Protect can help avoid these.
