Price impact
Price impact is how much your own trade moves the price against you. On an order book it comes from walking up the levels; in a DEX pool it comes from the pool formula.
On 11 October 2026 a $10,000 swap had about 0.4% price impact in Uniswap v2’s $20 million USDC/WETH pool and about 15% in a $114 thousand CRV/WETH pool, fee included. Price impact is the part of slippage you cause yourself.
