USD/RUB

FXCM dropping USD/RUB pair. Any other broker/s to trade this currency?

I'm with Forex.com , you can trade these pairs with them in the US.

Just contacted Pepperstone as trading on my live feed has stopped. They have suspended trading the USD/RUB until banks are back to provide 'Constant' liquidity.

Talk about fireworks at the moment

Really? I can still get quotes, but am still waiting for that short entry ... .

Far too dicey now to touch the Ruble for me; that whole "capital restrictions" threat monkey business would have to be totally moved to back burner for me to wade back in. That might take months/years ... .

fxcm

Now tanking ... . Rats leaving the ship ... . Now below 62.00, but wicked down as low as 58. Whip-sawing all over the place ... .

Wow. That's somewhat major ... .

What will this mean for the Russian Economy as a whole if Capital Controls are introduced to stop the rapid loss in value for the ruble?

Well that was short lived. Pepperstone appear to be back on line for the USD/RUB trading. Spreads largely unchanged although the up and down is pretty staggering so I imagine you'd find a small level of slippage.

USD/RUB finish green today ?!

66 high is breached....well CBR what do you do next?

High inflation and recession (less jobs) = looks like Putin will lose next election

I'm with Alpari and my USDRUB long positions were temporary suspended, e.g. the trades did not move, wasn't able to close or modify anything about them until roughly 08:50 GMT time. Weird... Still my positions are still open and are further in profit Let this bull run continue, I'll happily short it once it drops at some point....

I am with alpari, and i cant trade this pair. talked with customer service and they said there is error.

From 10.5 to 17 % Let's see what happens next...

Hi gentlemen,

I'd have couple of questions. I do intraday trading with YM/TF futures on Ninjatrader platform for last 4 years. However, I'm thinking about buying some RUB locally in my local bank and place it on 3months term saving with 5,5% p.a. This 5,5% will repay me the fees I have to pay to bank as I'd use cash.

1. Question: What do you think about such offline/amateur trading (walking into bank, creating RUB account for 3-6 months). I see USD/RUB, EUR/RUB is still (at the moment) going higher so I'd wait for stabilized day - short signal which would signalize RUB to stop falling into abyss. Going from usual price 40-45RUB per Euro to current 83 RUB for Euro gives me question how far this can go. I believe anything long-term above 100RUB/EUR is equal to end of RF economics right? On markets, everything possible however I do not believe they would let it go further than 100RUB/EUR (around 80RUB/USD). What do you think about this investment opportunity in general?

2.Question: I believe you would never use local bank account to invest into RUB like I think about. What do you think would be better option how to trade this? (Broker + Platform). I'm EU located, we do have xtb brokers here for example, I use Ninjatrader platform or I can use any broker's web platform. Any opinions are welcome.

Thank you in advance, I use FF for 4 years, but this is the first time I'm trying to ask here for details and your opinions.

Wow.

GO USD/RUB go!! I just want to see this pair keep going higher and higher. Going to be the best long term opportunity.. possibly ever.. ?

a desperate move....

Loving this pair, glad I discovered it. Kind of feels like the short I've had on Oil since October
