#TradingPairs101 : Why Your Trading Pair Choice Matters
Choosing the right coin is just half the trade.
The other half? Picking the right trading pair. ⚖️
🔹 What’s a trading pair?
It’s the two assets you’re swapping — like BTC/USDT or ARB/ETH.
You’re not just buying a coin — you’re trading one value against another.
💡 Key differences between pairs:
• USDT pairs = easier price tracking in dollars
• BTC/ETH pairs = good for stacking sats/eth if you don’t want to cash out
• Low-volume pairs = more risk, more slippage
🔍 Tip: Before trading, check pair liquidity, spread, and depth.
Not all pairs are created equal — especially in altcoin land 🌋
