Market Quality

Definition

Market Quality denotes the characteristics of an exchange or trading environment that contribute to efficient and equitable transaction execution. Key attributes include high liquidity, narrow bid-ask spreads, minimal price impact for substantial orders, and transparency in pricing. A market with superior quality allows participants to trade assets efficiently and at fair valuations. This metric is essential for assessing the operational health and reliability of both centralized and decentralized digital asset exchanges.
