Trading pairs are the foundation of crypto and forex trading. A trading pair shows how one asset is priced against another—like BTC/USDT, where you're buying Bitcoin using Tether (a stablecoin). The first asset is what you're buying (base), and the second is what you're using to buy it (quote). Understanding pairs helps you know the market’s value and how to switch between assets. Popular pairs often have higher liquidity and lower fees. Always check the pair before placing an order—it defines your entire trade! Mastering trading pairs is key to navigating any exchange with confidence.
