The level of volume of dollar sales of STB remains very high. Most likely, the banks are experiencing some differences with tenge liquidity. Since the end of last week repo "overnight" rates had jumped suddenly, what we are connecting to next periods of tax payments. Judging by results of technical analysis, tomorrow the dollar will be traded on the rates, achieved today (in the price range of 120.40 - 120.60). at that the volume of sales, judging by the parameter of unsatisfied supply, will also remain on high level.
