Explain this to me please? This does not sound good.

USD/IQD exchange rate dropped (raise in value for the dinar) during November, ...the process accelerated in December, in what almost seemed like a mad dash to end the year at 1,325.

That also happened to be the USD/EUR exchange rate (with three decimals moved) at the end of December.

This USD/EUR vs IQD ratio has continued from end of year to the present.

The two have been tracking each other very closely.....

Anyone for a 1 EUR to 1 Dinar reval?

The dinar has been almost exactly at the USD/EUR (three decimals) for the last 30 days!!!!

As of today that would be 1 Dinar = 1.29 dollars

I don't have any inside information, but these to track each other so closely is a mathematical improbability.

Wouldn't the dinar move with the USD/EUR at the same pace simply because the dinar is currently pegged to the USD? Am I missing the boat big time here or what???
What were the USD/EUR rates at before the dinar started appriciating in value? I mean like when it it was at 1470 /1 USD.
