Notes on Sandwich trading

• To sandwich, a searcher will watch the mempool for large DEX trades.
• A searcher can calculate the approximate price effect of this large trade and execute an optimal buy order immediately before the large trade, then executing a sell order immediately after the large trade (selling it for the igher price caused by the large order).
• Sandwiching is riskier as it isn't atomic an it's prone to salmonella attack
