#TradingPairs101 – Understand the Core of Every Trade
In crypto, you’re not just buying or selling—you’re trading pairs. Here’s what that means:
💱 1. What’s a Trading Pair?
A trading pair shows the exchange rate between two assets, like BTC/ETH or ETH/USDT.
🧭 2. Base vs Quote
→ In ETH/USDT, you're buying ETH (base) using USDT (quote).
→ The price shown tells you how much of the quote asset (USDT) is needed to buy 1 unit of the base asset (ETH).
💡 3. Why It Matters
→ Choosing the right pair affects your fees, slippage, and strategy.
→ Some altcoins are only tradable via BTC or ETH pairs, not fiat.
🎯 Pro Tip: Always know what you're really trading before you click “Buy.”
Trade smart. Know your pairs.
