#Liquidity101 ๐Ÿ’ง #Liquidity101: The Lifeblood of Every Trade

If you donโ€™t understand liquidity, you might be leaving profits on the table โ€” or worse, getting wrecked. Letโ€™s simplify it ๐Ÿ‘‡

1๏ธโƒฃ What Is Liquidity?

Liquidity = How easily you can buy/sell a token without big price changes.

โš–๏ธ More buyers + sellers = smoother trades

๐ŸŒ Less liquidity = price jumps + slippage

---

2๏ธโƒฃ Why Liquidity Is ๐Ÿ”‘

โœ… Instant trade execution

โœ… Lower slippage

โœ… Tighter spreads

โœ… Easier exits during market panic

๐Ÿ”ฅ Especially crucial for large trades & volatile tokens

3๏ธโƒฃ Where to Check Liquidity?

๐Ÿ” On CEXs:

โ†’ Look at order book depth & 24h volume

๐Ÿ” On DEXs:

โ†’ Check TVL, LP size, slippage %

---

4๏ธโƒฃ CEX vs DEX Liquidity

๐Ÿ›๏ธ CEX: Centralized market makers = deeper liquidity

๐ŸŒ DEX: Depends on users providing liquidity (LPs) โ€” varies by pair

---

5๏ธโƒฃ Low Liquidity = High Risk

โš ๏ธ You might:

Pay more than expected

Get stuck in illiquid tokens

Face price manipulation in thin markets
