About USD/INR
USD/INR is controlled by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which actively manages the Rupee to limit volatility rather than target a specific level. India's position as a major oil importer means crude oil prices have an outsized impact: when oil rises, India's import bill swells, and INR tends to weakken. The RBI's deep foreign exchange reserves give it substantial firepower to smooth sharp moves.

Trading Tips
- →The RBI is one of the most active central banks in FX markets - assume intervention at every round number (80, 82, 84, etc.) on USD/INR.
- →Rising crude oil is almost invariably bearish for INR - the relationship is one of the most reliable in emerging-market FX.
- →This pair is more managed than freely floating - technical analysis works less well than fundamental analysis for INR pairs.
