When purchasing or selling a trading pair, all you have to do is place an order, which can be filled by another user willing to buy or sell that trading pair.<\/p>\n<p>A trading pair consists of two currencies; a base currency and a quote currency. The quote currency is the amount you pay to buy one unit of the base currency. For example, in the BTC\/USDT pairing, BTC is the base currency, and USDT is the quote currency. The exchange rate of BTC\/USDT tells you how many units of USDT you need to purchase one unit of BTC.<\/p>\n<p>Trading pairs are the core of all exchanges. Most exchanges provide a way to trade cryptocurrency for fiat currency such as dollars, euros, or yen. Many also offer the ability to trade different types of cryptocurrencies for each other. For example, you can use Bitcoin to buy Ethereum or Litecoin.<\/p>\n<p>If you have ever traded stocks before, then trading cryptocurrency should be no different. You place an order on an exchange and you wait for another buyer or seller to match your order. The exchange acts as a middleman and may charge a fee depending on the volume of the trade.<\/p>\n<p>If you are new to trading cryptocurrency, it is important that you understand how the trading process works before putting your money in danger. This article will teach you how to buy and sell cryptocurrency so that you can make a profit with it!<\/p>\n<p>Familiarity with exchange terminology is a crucial step to becoming a crypto trader. Different exchanges have different trading pairs and structures, so it&#8217;s important to know the difference before you start trading.<\/p>\n<p>Most crypto exchanges are dealing with two primary trading pairs: fiat-to-crypto and crypto-to-crypto. While exchanges that deal with fiat-to-crypto pairs may be more familiar to you, those that don&#8217;t include fiat currency tend to offer lower fees since they are not involved in the banking industry.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what you need to know about each type of exchange:<\/p>\n<p>What is a Fiat Exchange?<\/p>\n<p>Fiat exchange is a term used for an exchange where you can trade cryptocurrencies for government backed fiat currencies like USD, EUR, JPY, CAD etc. This type of exchange is also typically known as a &#8220;Fiat Gateway&#8221;. These exchanges are usually licensed and regulated by a government body, which gives them the ability to accept deposits from customers in the form of fiat currency. The users deposit the fiat currency through bank transfers or credit cards and use it to buy cryptocurrency or various other digital assets on the platform. You may have heard of some popular fiat exchanges such as Coinbase or Kraken, which both deal with fiat pairings.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto trading has become very popular. But what exactly do you have to do to trade cryptocurrencies? How can you make money with Bitcoin, Ripple and Ethereum? In this article we will explain what crypto trading is and how it works.<\/p>\n<p>What exactly is crypto trading?<\/p>\n<p>Many people have heard of buying and selling digital currencies such as Bitcoin, Ripple and Ethereum. These are called cryptocurrencies. Crypto trading is more than just buying and selling these digital money forms. It&#8217;s speculation: you don&#8217;t buy something but a share of the currency itself. This means that your profit or loss depends on the price development of the specific cryptocurrency that you are speculating in.<\/p>\n<p>There are many different crypto exchanges where you can speculate on the price of cryptocurrencies. However, not all crypto exchanges offer the same functionalities for crypto traders. For example, some only allow you to buy and sell one currency at a time, while others also allow you to trade currencies against each other (for example Bitcoin against Ethereum).<\/p>\n<p>In our previous post, we discussed the prominent use of cryptocurrencies in trading. The most basic type of trading is a simple buy or sell. This is an agreement to give someone a unit of currency at an agreed upon price, and for them to give you an asset at that same price.<\/p>\n<p>The problem with this type of trade is that it requires constant interaction between the buyer and seller. In most cases, the buyer and seller know each other well enough that they will be able to keep track of who owes what to whom and make payments accordingly. However, as discussed in our previous post, this becomes more difficult when the buyer and seller do not know each other very well and cannot trust one another fully.<\/p>\n<p>One solution to this problem is to use a third party to act as an intermediary between the two parties involved in the trade. For example, if Alice and Bob are involved in a trade where Alice wants to buy Bob&#8217;s TV, they can agree on a price beforehand. Beforehand, they would both need to deposit sufficient funds into their accounts with a third party service such as Coinbase or Bitstamp. The third party would then hold onto these funds until either Alice or Bob decides to cash out their profits or withdraw their losses.<\/p>\n<p>Once both parties have deposited funds<\/p>\n<p>The value of a crypto asset is based upon the supply and demand of markets. The price of an asset is determined by the market, as a result of all buying and selling activity. As such, the price can rise or fall depending on investor sentiment towards a particular asset.<\/p>\n<p>As investors buy more of one asset, and sell another, the prices for each will fluctuate. For example, if there is strong demand for Bitcoin (BTC) but weak demand for Ether (ETH), then BTC\/ETH pairs will become more expensive for the buyer to purchase.<\/p>\n<p>When Bitcoin is bought or sold on exchanges, the price often rises or falls in response to investor demand. This can be seen on CoinMarketCap&#8217;s listings of all assets and their trading pairs:<\/p>\n<p>BTC\/ETH &#8211; Bitcoin bought with Ether<\/p>\n<p>ETH\/BTC &#8211; Bitcoin sold with Ether<\/p>\n<p>In this case, we see that BTC is trading at 0.0253 BTC per ETH, while ETH is trading at 39.42 BTC per ETH. The difference between these numbers shows us that there are many more buyers of BTC than sellers of ETH<\/p>\n<p>Cryptocurrency exchanges are online platforms where you can exchange one cryptocurrency for another cryptocurrency (or for fiat currency). In other words, depending on the exchange, it is either like a stock exchange or a currency exchange (at the airport or bank). You can sell coins, buy coins, trade them for other coins or trade them for fiat money (dollars, euros, etc.).<\/p>\n<p>Note that exchanges provide highly varying degrees of safety, security, privacy, and control over your funds and information. Perform your own due diligence and choose a wallet where you will keep your bitcoin before selecting an exchange.<\/p>\n<p>Some exchanges allow you to transfer money to overseas accounts, but the fees will be much higher and there may be a delay changing the Bitcoins back into local currency.<\/p>\n<p>Exchanges that are fully transparent will publish audit information on how to verify their Bitcoin reserves.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to try Coinbase but with much higher volume, this platform is the way to go.**<iframe width=\"100%\"\" height=300vh src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6LVT0X0r99M?autoplay=1&#038;mute=1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trading pairs are a convenient way for investors to buy and sell digital currency, as it involves the trade of one digital currency for another.
