A trading pair shows which two assets you’re exchanging.
For example, in BTC/USDT, you're trading Bitcoin against Tether.
If you buy BTC/USDT, you're using USDT to buy BTC; selling means converting BTC to USDT.
There are crypto-to-fiat pairs (BTC/USD), crypto-to-stablecoin pairs (ETH/USDT), and crypto-to-crypto pairs (ETH/BTC).
Popular pairs have high liquidity and tighter spreads, while exotic pairs may have less liquidity and higher risk.
Understanding pairs helps you pick the right market, manage risk, and plan entries/exits better.
Always check pair liquidity, spread, and market depth before trading.
