Today, the Naira traded at N323/dollar - it traded at N322 yesterday, April 11, 2016.
The speculative trend of the currency has effectively died out in recent weeks as it maintains a steady position against the dollar, although it has been dropping steadily against the British Pound.
Today, the Naira continued to trade at N323/dollar - it traded at N322 yesterday, April 11, 2016. Right now, you can buy dollars at N320/dollar on the parallel market - an increase of about N2.
For other foreign currencies, you can buy the British Pound at N450/pound on the parallel market, or sell for N445/pound, same prices which the naira traded at against the Pound Sterling yesterday.
The Euro is also trading for N365/euro, while you can sell for N362/euro - another N2 drop, showing a now obvious slump against the Euro. These figures are similar to the ones which the naira posted by the close of business yesterday, and earlier today, give or take a few naira (The Naira was being bought at N360/Euro this morning as opposed to the N362it is currently bought at).
