Market Liquidity Thin describes a trading environment characterized by a low volume of available buy and sell orders, resulting in larger price movements for relatively small trades. In such conditions, assets are difficult to purchase or sell without significantly impacting their price. This state indicates a lack of depth in the order book, making the market more susceptible to volatility. It reflects reduced trading interest and capital allocation.
