O dollar fell slightly against the real this Friday (30), with investors adjusting positions after the currency closed the day before at a peak in two months, but the last trading session before the first round of the presidential elections can bring caution and volatility, a perspective that was reinforced by the resumption of a US currency rally abroad.
The formation of Ptax – the exchange rate used as a reference for financial operations – at the end of the month and quarter should also contribute to instability during the negotiations, experts said.

On B3, at 9:05 am (GMT), the first-maturity dollar futures contract fell 0.21% to R$5.387.
The day before, the US currency in sight closed up 0.83%, at R$ 5.393, the highest value since July 22 (5.4976 reais).
In this session, the Central Bank will offer up to 16 thousand traditional foreign exchange swap contracts for the purpose of rolling over the maturity date of November 1, 2022.
