🔄 Trading Pairs 101: The Backbone of Every Trade 💱📊

New to trading? Let’s talk trading pairs—the key to understanding how assets are exchanged on any market.

A trading pair shows the two assets you’re trading between, like BTC/USDT. The first asset (BTC) is what you're buying or selling. The second (USDT) is what you're using to measure or pay for it.

🔹 Example: In the BTC/USDT pair, if BTC = $70,000, that means 1 BTC costs 70,000 USDT.

There are crypto-to-fiat pairs (e.g., ETH/USD) and crypto-to-crypto pairs (e.g., ETH/BTC). The pair you choose affects liquidity, fees, and execution.

💡 Tip: Stick to major pairs when starting—they’re more liquid and stable.
