The rupee depicted mixed patterns against the dollar on the money market on Friday in process of trading activity, dealers said.
In the final Asian trade, the dollar stayed near a two-week high versus the yen on Friday as investors pared expectations for aggressive Federal Reserve interest rate cuts ahead of key US economic data later in the day.
The euro held gains after the European Central Bank (ECB) kept policy unchanged, disappointing some market participants who had bet on an easing, but sources told Reuters a rate cut at the ECB's next meeting appeared certain.
In addition, a bounce in Treasury yields and data on Thursday showing a surge in US capital goods orders provided more reasons for traders to reconsider expectations for global monetary easing.
With no major events scheduled in Asia on Friday, investors are likely to look to US economic data later in the day. The focus then shifts to Bank of Japan (BOJ) and Federal Reserve meetings next week.
The Fed is widely expected to cut rates, but there are growing views such a move may be a one-off event, not the start of a major easing cycle. The BOJ is also divided over whether to ease policy, but expectations for a move are low.
The dollar was trading against the Indian rupee at Rs 69.025, the greenback was at 4.119 versus the Malaysian ringgit and the US currency was available at 6.882 in terms of the Chinese yuan.
