Currently, the pair came close but did not quite approach its 50-hour SMA at 33.2148. If the pair slips through this level, it will slide to its 200-hour SMA at 33.1017 and, if breached, USD/RUB would meet traders' expectations, who are bearish in 63.64% of cases, falling to the next support zone at 33.0673, a decline below which will amplify depreciation of the pair.
