#TradingPairs101 A trading pair represents two assets that you can trade against each other, such as BTC/USDT or ETH/BTC. The first asset is the one you buy or sell, and the second is the reference asset. For example, in BTC/USDT you are buying or selling Bitcoin using Tether as the base value. Choosing the right pair is key to your strategy: some pairs have better liquidity, lower spread, or more volatility. Not all assets are available in all pairs. Before trading, check the liquidity and conditions of the pair. Understanding pairs is essential for efficient trading and to avoid surprises.
