buy/sell problem

[zareexx]

In this build, as I understand it, the bot can only capture and analyze transactions? He can't react to them to buy/sell?

I quite often see transactions as mentioned above, including without negative profit values. But the bot simply ignores this aspect. Is this how it should be?

You are not taking into account the many other factors involved.

For example, this transaction you shared is for a token with a tax on it. Subway doesn't have a built-in way to determine transaction taxes in the formulas. I suspect a lot of the transactions fall into this category.

There are also points in the Flashbots part that will filter out opportunities that you can't win profitably.
