USD started to regain in pairing with Rouble

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate begun to decline in pairing with the USD amid large-scale sales of the pair EUR/USD at Forex today, due to the aggravation of the situation in Libya. At the same time oil prices continue to rise and this can keep the Rouble from severe subsidence.

Thus, trading session started for the USD at the level of 29.22 roubles, which is 8 kopeks more than the level yesterday; the EUR started movement at the level of 39.72 roubles, (-17 kopeks).

Dual currency basket value decreased by 3 kopeks today and amounted to 33.96 roubles today

Therefore, external background where investors’ attention now is focused on the developments in the Middle East, continues to dictate directions for the movement in the market

Presumably the pair Rouble/Dollar will be in the channel of 29.15-29.35 roubles for the USD at the trading session today.
