📉 What is happening today in cryptocurrencies
‼️ trade with great caution
Today, as it is July 4th, an important holiday in the US, many traders and institutions are not trading. This leads to fewer people buying and selling cryptocurrencies.

🧃 What is "liquidity"?
Liquidity is how easily you can:
Sell a cryptocurrency without losing money.
Buy without the price rising too much.
With high liquidity:
There are many buyers and sellers.
Trades happen quickly and at the expected price.
With low liquidity (like today):
There are few people trading.
Your orders may take longer to execute.
The price can move a lot with large trades.

🧠 A very simple example:
Think about going to the market to sell mangoes:
If there are many people in the market, you sell them quickly at the fair price.
If there are few people, maybe no one buys them... or you have to drop the price a lot.
The same thing is happening today with Bitcoin and other cryptos: there are fewer buyers, so prices can move more easily.
