To start with the creation of our Liquidity Pool we access directly to the Uniswap app and connect our wallet. From there in the main menu we will see the access to "Pools" (Remember to select the network of Base in the dropdown at the top right).

In this section, we can manage the liquidity pools we have, and also createa new liquidity pool within Uniswap.

2.1 Create Token Pair in Uniswap

To create our liquidity pool the first thing to do is to create a token pair. In this case, we first select the token with "value" in dollars. For what we have previously discussed I will select USDT, since it is a stablecoin.

We continue by selecting our token, copythetokenaddress and paste it in the searchbar, then you can select it. It is normal that a warning message appears, since it is the first time that a liquidity pool is created with our token.

2.3. Select the commission of your liquidity pool

Our next step will be to select the fee percentage that each transaction will have through our liquidity pool. To do this, we click on "Edit" Fee Tier.

We will see 4 options to choose from. The most common and recommended according to Uniswap, is 0.3%.

2.4. Setting starting price and price range

As this is the first time we create a liquidity pool with the created token pair, we must set the starting price. That is, the price at which users will be able to trade, thanks to our liquidity pool. In addition, we will set the price range.

Regarding the starting price simply indicate the one you consider optimal, it is recommended to prepare a complete tokenomics to follow a strategy.

If we talk about the price range, it is important to emphasize that our liquidity pool will ONLY be active in the range we set. That is, if the token's price is above or below the range that we indicate, our liquidity pool will remain inactive and will not be acting.

Remember that the starting price has to be within the price range we set.

2.5. Deposit liquidity

Once the price range is set , it is time to deposit the liquidity of the token pair. We can decidehow much toadd. Remember to add enough so that users can trade normally without an excessively low limit.

If you create a token from 0 and do not want to add much liquidity, the most common is to start with a VERY low price, so the liquidity scales with the token's price.
