Choosing the right trading pair is a bit like choosing the right language for a conversation đ€
In a pair, there is always a base asset (what you buy or sell) and a quote asset (with which you pay or receive).
For example, in the pair BTC/USDT, BTC is the base, and USDT is the quote.
Personally, I prefer to trade with stablecoins like USDT to limit fluctuations, but sometimes, trading directly in crypto can offer more opportunities.
Before each trade, I check the liquidity and fees of the pair to make the best choice.
A good example: choosing BTC/USDT allowed me to secure my gains without price surprises, unlike a less liquid pair that would have complicated the exit.
