Rouble consolidates in pairing with USD at the end of the week

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section the Russian Rouble rate increased against the USD on Friday amid positive dynamics of the pair EUR/USD at Forex and the rise in oil prices.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 31.18 roubles, which is 25 kopeks less than the level yesterday; the EUR started movement at the level of 41.3 roubles (+13 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value declined by 10 kopeks on Friday and amounted to 35.75 roubles

Therefore, positive sentiments at the world trading floors contribute to the upward correction of the Rouble after the drastic fall this week. Presumably the pair Rouble/Dollar will not go beyond the channel of 31.07-31.29 roubles for the USD  at the trading session today.
