Rouble continues to fall in pairing with USD

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate continues to fall in pairing with the USD, amid panic-stricken sales at the global capital market and due to the decrease in oil prices.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 29.24 roubles, which is 32 kopek more than yesterday’s closing level; the EUR started movement at the level of 41.7 roubles (+55 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value amounted to 34.85 roubles today, increasing by 45 kopeks and reaching the highs of this year.
Therefore, balance of forces in the rouble pairs has not changed significantly.

Presumably, the pair Dollar/Rouble will not go beyond the channel of 29.10-29.35 Roubles for the USD at the trading session on Tuesday.
