#TradingPairs101 **A trading pair** consists of two currencies or assets traded against each other in markets like forex or crypto (e.g., BTC/USD or EUR/GBP). The first asset is the *base currency*, and the second is the *quote currency*, showing how much of the quoted asset is needed to buy one unit of the base. Trading pairs reflect market demand, liquidity, and volatility. Major pairs (like EUR/USD) have high liquidity and lower spreads, while exotic pairs (like USD/TRY) are riskier. Traders analyze price charts, order books, and volume to predict movements. Choosing the right pair depends on strategy, risk appetite, and market conditions.
