USD/TRY Weekly uptrend opportunity based on 1.00 Lot Calculation:
- In 2021, the Turkish lira has lost around 80% against the dollar as the Turkish Central Bank cut its one-week repo rate four times since September (5% in total) to current 14%. On the other hand, the possibility of the faster Fed rate hikes is supportive for the US dollar.
- President Tayyip Erdogan insists on pursuing bizarre monetary policy (compared to modern monetary standards), despite inflation breaching 20% in November. In addition, he interferes not only in the conduct of monetary policy but also in the selection and firing of central bank’s governors (three central bank governors in the last two years).
