Trading Pairs 101 (Crypto Basics):

A trading pair shows the two assets you're trading between—one you're buying, the other you're selling.

Common Types:

Crypto-to-Crypto (e.g., BTC/ETH): Trade Bitcoin for Ethereum.

Crypto-to-Stablecoin (e.g., ETH/USDT): Trade Ethereum for Tether (a stable USD-pegged coin).

Crypto-to-Fiat (e.g., BTC/USD): Trade Bitcoin for U.S. Dollars (only on exchanges that support fiat).

How It Works:

In BTC/USDT, you're using USDT to buy BTC.

The first asset is the base (what you're buying or selling).

The second is the quote (what you're using to price and pay).

Tip: Always check which side you're trading—buying vs. selling—and the current price of the pair. Different pairs offer different liquidity and fees.
