USD declines in pairing with Rouble mid-week

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble resumed growth in pairing with USD amid positive dynamics in EUR/USD at Forex.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 28.18 roubles, 15 kopeks lower than Tuesday’s close; the EUR started at the level of 40.24 roubles (+7 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value today decreased 5 kopeks and amounted to 33.61 roubles.

Thereby the Russian Rouble gains support from EUR strengthening at Forex as well as from high oil prices.

Presumably the pair Rouble/Dollar will be in the channel of 28.08-28.25 roubles for the USD at the trading session on Wednesday.
