USD remains in losing position in pairing with Rouble

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate remains close to high levels, as long as oil price is high and the situation in the pair Euro/Dollar remains stable.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 27.93-27.99 roubles, which is 2 kopeks less than   yesterday’s closing level; the EUR started movement at the level of 40.8 (+5 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value decreased by 1 kopeks on Friday and amounted to 33.7 roubles.

Such poor dynamics in the currency market was caused by the absence of the most investors, due to Easter celebrations.

Presumably the pair Rouble/Dollar will be in the channel of 27.90-28.10 Roubles for the USD at the trading session today.
