BTC trading pair or USDT trading pair?

[error08]

I will prefer to use USDT rather than bitcoin as a pair because i wanna get stability on my trade. I don't need feel worry my profit to be affected caused by the volatility that happaned with bitcoin.
Bitcoin's price can change in any seconds, that brings more possibility for my profit to be affected by the bitcoin's volatility.
It's also easy for me to determine which price that i should use it to enter the market.

But at current bitcoin rate, it's more profitable to choose btc pair as its price trend to increase compared to altcoins which result in you being able to buy more coins.
if bitcoin price decline, then altcoins prices tend to decrease as well, in this case, you'll get more coins with USDT pairs
So which pair that I favor depending on the market condition and the current price of bitcoin and USDT, but mostly prefer bitcoin.

Depending on whether I want to save it or sell it again, if I want to save it I prefer an altcoin pair because withdrawal fee is cheap when I move to my personal wallet,
but if it is for sale again I will choose bitcoin pair especially when BTC Dominance is high, the value will increase faster.

If I personally prefer USDT rather than BTC to be used as a trading pair, because USDT is a stable coin that makes the value of the money I have for trading not reduced (if the price of BTC falls), then the value of capital that I have will remain safe.

For the time being I still prefer USDT trading pairs. because everything is simple it is easy to calculate the amount of money I lose or receive in the trade. Moreover, USDT is still the leading currency in the world, we who are using cryptocurrency is still too small compared to the traditional financial market. Maybe the future will change my mindset about using trading pair, by which time I will prioritize btc.

The reason because it is stable indeed makes traders prefer use USDT pair than BTC, But I prefer to use BTC pair because I believe the Bitcoin price will increase in the future. BTC pairs have many options on the Exchange so we can trade a lot of coins.

It depends on what coin you took as base for your analysis of the trade, USDT is less riskier compared to USDT for it may suitable for everyone to execute their trade orders well and bitcoin trading pair is like double edged sword, you may gain or lose more what what you aimed for at the end of trade.

BTC trading pairs are better because you still have btc on your balance and in case of mooning you will earn more

It will not be difficult to decide because you need to feel what trading can make you comfortable to trade. You can do both btc trading pair and usdt trading pair because I think the pattern is almost the same, although you need to analyze more to find the time to trade. Or maybe you can try to trade btc trading pair for some time, and then you can change to usdt trading pair, so that can give you experience on what trading pair you can choose.

But if you want to feel more stable, you can select usdt trading pair because if you already sell your bitcoin or altcoin, your money value will be at the usdt, and you don't need to worry if the value will always change. But if you hold bitcoin or altcoin, the value of your money will be changed day by day if you don't trade.

I will prefer bitcoin 80% of times. Because if bitcoin pumps suddenly I can still increase my balance. Though sometimes I trade with USDT, but that with some big altcoins like ETH, BnB, LTC.

USDT value always constant, works only if you intend afraid of losing on your balance. About trading pair BTC is the most productive one since bitcoin price rises in long term and you can experience in case of mooning your balance. At present I have no confusion going with BTC when it's approaching the 14k.

I will also choose a trading pair with USDT. I think you also know USDT as the unit of payment and associated with all kinds of valuable products. In this market, we choose BTC ETH for trade, but perhaps most here we all want our assets in units of USDT rather than crypto. I think that's what makes the difference. maybe in the future we will have another choice for our asset unit.

I  feel better with trading btc pair.
 Actullay it is better to make it btc to dollar. All swapping site accept btc. But usdt is not supported by all.So I support btc pair.

I find the trading to be more easy when paired with USDT. When we do the same with ethereum or any other cryptocurrency we need to make calculations. When did with USDT or any of the stable coins portfolio management can be made easier. Most of the time people prefer trading with stablecoins to keep up the portfolio value undisturbed even when the market is declining.

I prefer pair USDT because USDT is a stable Altcoin and even more stable than Ethereum. I prefer to safe my assets because sometimes when selling or trading pairs in Ethereum/Bitcoin I will end up holding it due to falling prices.

Not always! If BTC go up Alt will bleed and you may lose profit in satoshi. So if you are willing to cash some money early go for usdt and for long term you can use BTC.

Which trading pair you want to choose. Suppose you want to trade a common coins which is listed in both pair. Then which pair you will choose?

If i compare in binance BTC/ETH and USDT/ETH markets, Then i can see volume is BTC market almost 241,924 ETH.

I trade btc/Usdt only when I try to avoid volatility, it's always easy to hold Usdt when the market is tumbling with loss, this way you can safeguard your fund.
When trading altcoins, I prefer to used btc pairs. When an altcoins surge by 200-300%, I don't convert them to Usdt, I directly swap them to Btc because as soon as bitcoin start making moves, altcoins and their dominance will begin to fall.
Once altcoins season begins, I make sure I book my profit in Btc.

You should only use BTC ETH pair in order to get profit from it.
Other than this its makes much more sense to trade via USDT since its basically more stable

[copoyes]

prefer eth-usdt as usdt price is stable
And the benchmark for eth prices is more to USDT, unless there is news that BTC wants to go up
just eth-btc to take profit in bitcoin, yeah the same, if you want eth-btc or eth-usdt, I just think there are advantages in USD
if the BTC is down it can be far enough to lose
if usdt is not too much of a loss

[SquallLeonhart]

I always use USDT trading pair, because btc is something I already have which means I do not see it as something I want to get rid of or want to ever change, I will "invest" into bitcoin but I will "trade" usdt, there is a big difference. Which means all I have to do is use usdt pairs all day everyday and have as much usdt as I could, and if I end up with a profit I use that profit side and buy bitcoin and put it aside and not touch it, then I go back to my usdt like my starting capital so I am in profit but my usdt is still the same while my btc increased.

Obviously if you want to you can do this with btc without ever touching usdt but that never really makes me feel as comfortable, I just want to see the number, seeing 543k satoshi profit is more confusing, seeing 50 bucks is easier to understand while trading.
