Hello dear readers, this is an opportunity to analyze the most important aspects that prevail in any financial market, whether physical or virtual, starting from the imbalances or differences that are generated between supply and demand.

These imbalances are usually considered as the kinetic force that gives life to the markets, basically because when differences are generated between supply and demand, conditions are created that allow both buyers and sellers to negotiate.

It is to be understood that the bid-ask spread is an extremely important determinant of the prices that are established in a negotiation within the cryptocurrency market.

This is because the bid-ask spread usually significantly affects the return for or against any cryptocurrency, hence, knowing how to correctly estimate the bid-ask spread is of utmost importance for cryptocurrency investors.

Another important element to highlight is that the bid-ask spread serves as a parameter to know or project the illiquidity of the financial markets, in addition to the magnitude of the bid-ask spread.

This is basically because they can enhance the economic growth of a particular cryptocurrency, therefore, in the specific case of those who buy / sell cryptocurrencies, knowing the differential between supply and demand would help us to take advantage of the operations we are executing.

In the next post, we will talk a little about positive slippage and negative slippage with illustrations of prices that occur between the bid-ask spread.
