#TradingPairs101 Trading Pair 101:
A trading pair in crypto or financial markets represents two different assets that can be traded against each other. For example, in the BTC/USDT pair, you're buying or selling Bitcoin in exchange for Tether (a stablecoin). The first asset (BTC) is the base currency, and the second (USDT) is the quote currency. Trading pairs help determine how much of one asset you need to exchange for another. Choosing the right pair is important for liquidity, fees, and strategy. Some pairs are more liquid than others, and not all exchanges offer the same combinations, so always check available pairs before trading.
