Hello,

For a given pair in a flashloan arbitrage operation, taking the example of uniswap and sushiswap as the selected DEX´s for executing an arbitrage opportunity, and for 1INCH/WETH token pair, sushiswap WETH price is cheaper than uniswap (despite having larger reserve volumes in comparison).

The problem lies when I execute the following two lines of code in my uniswapV2callmethod:

uint amountToRepay = UniswapV2Library.getAmountsIn(factory, _amount, path)[0];
uint amountReceived = router.swapExactTokensForTokens(
                    _amount,
                    amountToRepay, 
                    path,
                    msg.sender,
                    (block.timestamp + 300))[1];

and it returns amountToRepay > amountReceived when I was expecting the result to be other way round owing to spotted price difference opportunity under arbitrage operation.

Output console.log (from my back-end smart contract)
getAmountsIn() results.......

Where am I going wrong here as this issue has been troubling me for several weeks now.
I have tried implementing other_ pricing oracle methods but it comes back to this very same issue.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
