#Liquidity101 – Why It Matters in Crypto Trading 💧
Ever wonder why some tokens are easy to trade while others feel “stuck”? The answer is liquidity.
🔹 What is Liquidity?
Liquidity is how easily you can buy or sell an asset without affecting its price too much.
✅ High liquidity = Fast trades, low slippage, tighter spreads
⚠️ Low liquidity = Slow trades, big price swings, higher risk
📊 Example:
BTC/USDT has high liquidity — trades execute fast with little price change.
A small altcoin pair may have low liquidity — one big order can move the price drastically.
💡 Why You Should Care:
Traders need liquidity for smooth execution.
Investors need it to enter and exit positions safely.
Projects need it to attract users and capital.
🚨 Pro Tip: Always check liquidity before trading low-cap coins!
