{% hint style="info" %}
In the cryptocurrency market, token unit prices are quoted as token pairs. The first listed token of a token pair is called the base token and the second token is called the quote token. The token unit quotes indicate how many units of the quote tokens is needed to exchange for one unit of the base token.\
\
For example, in a SWTH/USD pair, SWTH is the base token and USD is the quote token.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Ensure that the details are correct, then click on the 'Create' button.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guide.dem.exchange/community/permissionless-listings/permissionless-market-creation/spot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
