Rouble is being sold in pairing with the USD and EUR

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate declined in pairing with the USD, as prices for the oil go down and the pair EUR/USD is being sold actively at Forex.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 29.1 roubles, which is 15 kopeks more than  closing level on Friday; the EUR started at the level of 41.4 roubles (+5 kopeks). 

Dual currency basket value increased by 10 kopeks today, and amounted to 34.75 roubles.

Therefore, unfavourable environment at the external markets has a negative impact of the exchange rate of the Rouble.

Presumably, the pair Dollar/Rouble will be in the channel of 29.05-29.15 Roubles for the USD at the trading session on Monday.
