In crypto trading, a trading pair (e.g., BTC/USDT) shows how much one asset is worth in another. The first asset is the *base currency* (what you buy/sell), and the second is the *quote currency* (price reference).
**Key Points:**
- **Major Pairs:** BTC/ETH, BTC/USDT (high liquidity).
- **Altcoin Pairs:** Often paired with BTC or stablecoins.
- **Volatility:** Some pairs move fast; others are stable.
- **Fees:** Check exchange fees before trading.
Understanding pairs helps optimize trades—pick liquid pairs to avoid slippage. Always DYOR! #CryptoBasics
