We could not observe any new trends or expectations. Sellers of the greenback lost initiative today, were unable to influence the market as good as they did on Wednesday. Organized trades demonstrated an adequate parity between supply and demand, while prices failed to consolidate over 139.00. Technical analysis results do not reveal any tendencies. The market expects new influencing factors. No reasons for upward movement, no significant volume of trades to go down. IRBIS for Friday: positioned trades. [2004-04-01]
