#Liquidity101 You probably encountered a liquidity problem.
Let's go back to basics: what is liquidity and why does it matter so much? 👇
🔹 Liquidity = Ease of buying or selling an asset without significantly affecting its price.
📈 High liquidity:
✔️ Many active buy/sell orders
✔️ Small spreads (difference between buy and sell price)
✔️ Lower volatility when executing an order
✔️ Ideal for active traders
📉 Low liquidity:
❌ Few buyers/sellers
❌ Large spreads
❌ High slippage (price slip)
❌ Risk of getting "stuck" with an illiquid asset
🔁 Where do we see more liquidity?
🔵 In large CEX like Binance, where there is high volume and active users
🟣 In DEX pools with high TVL (total value locked)
🧩 In pairs with well-known tokens (e.g. BTC/USDT, ETH/BUSD)
💡 Tips to avoid liquidity problems:
✅ Check trading volume before trading
✅ Use limit orders on tokens with low liquidity
✅ Don't enter with all your capital in “microcap” or lesser-known tokens
Liquidity isn't sexy... but without it, there's no real trading.
Understanding it gives you an advantage over 90% of newcomers. 😉
Have you ever found that you couldn't sell a token in time?
