#TradingPairs101

Hey everyone, today we're going to talk about something fundamental in the trading world, which is "Trading Pairs" (Aparelhos de negociação).

I'm not exaggerating in the description, it really is something very important that you need to understand what a trading pair is? Simply... . .

Any buying and selling operation in the market is between two assets, and this is what we call a "Trading Pair".

A simple example:

- If you want to buy **Dollars** with **Egyptian Pounds**, it means you are dealing with the pair **USD/EGP**.

- If you are trading **Bitcoin** against **Ethereum**, then this is the pair **BTC/ETH**.

So why are pairs important?

1. Every trade depends on a pair: there is no such thing as buying dollars without selling something in return (like pounds or euros).

2. The pair determines the market direction: when you see **EUR/USD** rising, it means that the euro has become stronger than the dollar, and vice versa.

3. There are popular pairs and rare ones:

- Major pairs: like **EUR/USD** (high liquidity)

- Rare pairs: like **USD/TRY** (Emerging Markets currencies – with higher risk).

Tips for beginners:

- Start with popular pairs to reduce risk.

- Always understand what you are trading against (for example: if you bought **BTC/USD**, you expect Bitcoin to rise against the dollar).

- Pay attention to the **spread** (the difference between the buying and selling price) – as it affects your profits.

* In summary:

Trading pairs are the foundation on which any transaction is built, so understand them well before you start!

I wish everyone good luck
