At that, the market makes the impression of expectant position of banks and in some uncertainty relative to further rate movement. On this background speculative component of trades on the day market prevailed. We don't expect tomorrow significant changes, however forecast active positional trades. From the point of view of technical analysis, the price range for dollar now is setting on the point 120.45-120.74 [2008-05-22]
