Volatility Beginner

Volatility is a measure of how sharply and quickly a price moves.

Crypto is famously volatile — moves of ten per cent or more in a single day are common. More volatility means bigger possible gains but also bigger possible losses, up to and including losing everything.

This definition is educational and not financial advice. Crypto is volatile and high-risk — always do your own research.
