USD decreased in pairing with Rouble

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate has risen significantly in pairing with the USD due to the surge in the major currency pair EUR/USD at Forex and also because of the rise in the oil price and general positive sentiment at the global currency market.

Thus, trading session for the USD started  at the level of 28.21 roubles, which is 24 kopeks less than yesterday’s closing session level; the EUR started at the level of 40.05 (+1 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value fell by 7 kopeks today, and amounted to 33.6 roubles.

Therefore, significant improvement in the sentiments on the global capital markets has a positive effect on the dynamics of the domestic currency.
Presumably, the pair Rouble/Dollar will be in the channel of 28.15-28.35 Roubles for the USD at the trading session on Thursday.
