USD gave way to the Russian Rouble

With the start of the trading session at the MICEX currency section, the Russian Rouble rate rose slightly in pairing with the USD, reflecting yesterday’s positive dynamics of the pair EUR/USD. In addition the rise of the oil prices also supported national currency.

Thus, trading session for the USD started at the level of 28.21 roubles, which is 6 kopeks less than yesterday’s closing level; the EUR started movement at the level of 40.81, almost unchanged.

Dual currency basket value decreased by 3 kopeks today and amounted to 33.89 roubles.

Therefore, insignificant rise in oil prices and strengthening of the Euro at the trading session on Thursday has created prerequisites for the positive dynamics of the Rouble.

Presumably the pair Rouble/Dollar will be in the channel of 28.15-28.35 roubles for the USD at the trading session on Friday.
