Liquidity
How easily an instrument can be traded without moving its price.
Liquid markets have tight spreads and deep order books, so you get filled near the quoted price; thin markets punish you with slippage and gaps. Liquidity also varies by session, which is why the same strategy can behave very differently at 3am versus the open.
