#TradingPairs101 Trading Pairs 101: What You Need to Know 🔁
A trading pair on exchanges like Binance shows what two assets you're swapping between — for example, BTC/USDT.
🟢 In BTC/USDT, you're trading Bitcoin (BTC) against Tether (USDT).
If you buy this pair, you're spending USDT to get BTC.
If you sell, you're converting BTC back to USDT.
🔄 Types of Trading Pairs:
1. Crypto-to-Stablecoin (e.g., ETH/USDT) – Most common for measuring gains.
2. Crypto-to-Crypto (e.g., ETH/BTC) – For swapping between coins.
3. Stablecoin-to-Stablecoin (e.g., USDT/FDUSD) – Often for arbitrage or fees.
Pro Tip: Choose pairs with high volume and liquidity for better execution and lower slippage.$ETH
