#Liquidity101 đ§â The Lifeblood of Any Market
Ever tried selling a coin but no one's buying? Thatâs a liquidity problem.
đ What is Liquidity?
Liquidity = How quickly and easily you can buy or sell an asset without affecting its price too much.
đš High Liquidity = Many buyers and sellers, smooth trading, tighter spreads.
đš Low Liquidity = Fewer participants, more slippage, price jumps.
đ Example:
BTC on Binance = High liquidity
New altcoin on a small DEX = Low liquidity
đĽ Why It Matters:
⢠You get better prices (lower spreads)
⢠Faster trades
⢠Less price manipulation
⢠More confidence for big investors
đ Tip:
Always check the order book and 24h volume before placing a large trade. In low-liquidity markets, even a small order can shift the price.
â ď¸ Reminder:
Liquidity can vanish during major news events or market crashes â plan your exits ahead of time.
