Trading Pairs 101 – Understand the trading pair correctly to avoid… trading mistakes!”

In crypto, a trading pair is a way for you to buy/sell one coin using another. For example: the pair BTC/USDT means you use USDT to buy BTC, or sell BTC to receive USDT.

There are 3 common types of pairs:

🔹 Fiat pairs: like BTC/USDT, ETH/USDC – easy to understand, popular.

🔹 Crypto-crypto pairs: like ETH/BTC, SUI/BNB – for pros or those who want to accumulate altcoins without converting to stablecoins.

🔹 Low cap pairs: for example, MEME/WIF – fun trading, high profit or… lose your wallet.

Common mistake: seeing a coin rise but not paying attention to the pair → buy the wrong one → thinking you profit, turns out you lose. Therefore, before clicking “Buy”, make sure to check carefully what you are trading with and what you will receive in return.

Choose the right pair – only then will your order match, and your mindset will be at ease.
