The price of the Turkish lira stabilized. It grew despite the great movement witnessed by most currencies and commodities around the world after the Federal Reserve in the United States raised the interest rate by 75 basis points. The green currency rose against most major currencies and emerging market currencies with the Fed’s insistence to adhere to the tightening monetary policy, which shows the Turkish Central Bank’s control of the lira’s exchange rate directly and indirectly as well.
This intervention also appears after negative data that did not affect the movement of the Turkish lira against global currencies, as data issued by the Turkish Statistical Institute revealed in early trading on Thursday that the country's consumer price index recorded an increase during the month of October by 3.54% on a monthly basis. The figure also set new records, amounting to 85.51% on an annual basis. The rises continue for the seventeenth consecutive month. In the details of the data, housing prices rose by 85% during the last month compared to the same period last year. Transportation prices also recorded an increase of 117% in conjunction with an increase in food prices by 99% on an annual basis. The rise in inflation comes in light of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's promises to work on reducing the inflation rate at the end of this year and the beginning of next year.

On the technical front, the US dollar pair against the Turkish lira stabilized without changes during today's early trading, amid the pair's divergence in tight trading at the current averages. The pair continued to fluctuate within a limited and continuous range since the beginning of last month, as the pair is trading the highest levels of support, which are concentrated at 18.51 and 18.42 levels, respectively. On the other hand, the lira is trading below the psychological resistance levels at the correct number based at 19.00. In the meantime, the pair is trading above the 50, 100, and 200 moving averages on the time frame for the day, indicating the general bullish trend, while the pair is trading between these averages on the four-hour time frame.
