I just realized that many people don't fully understand the abbreviations on the trading platform. Seeing 1K, 1M, 1B can be confusing, especially when 1m equals how much money.
Actually, it's very simple. 1K = 1k, 1M = 1 million, 1E = 100 million, 1B = 1 billion, and 1T = 1 trillion. The key is to understand each unit correctly to avoid confusion when reading volume or trading value.
I often see newcomers confuse M and B, then miscalculate the amount of money. So memorizing each one carefully is good, especially when looking at large numbers on the chart. If you haven't memorized them yet, bookmark this so you can refer back when needed.
