#TradingPairs101 Trading pairs represent the two currencies you’re swapping, like BTC/USDT or ETH/BTC. The base currency (first) is what you're buying, and the quote currency (second) is what you're using to buy it. For example, in BTC/USDT, you’re buying Bitcoin using Tether. Understanding pairs helps you move between assets efficiently. Some exchanges offer multiple pairs for one coin, giving you flexibility. Want to switch from ETH to SOL? You might go via USDT or BTC as a bridge. Always check liquidity and price slippage before trading a pair. Mastering trading pairs improves your navigation across markets and increases profit chances.
