BDT Market Update
18 Jul 2026 • 01:23 GMT
The Bangladeshi Taka remains stable against the US dollar, trading at around 0.008115. This level is just below its three-month average and has moved within a narrow 0.9% range from 0.008100 to 0.008171, reflecting steady market sentiment. The dollar’s strength has been supported by rising energy prices due to Gulf tensions and increased oil prices, which tend to boost the Greenback.
Despite the dollar’s recent strength, the Taka has not shown significant volatility against the USD, indicating cautious trading amid geopolitical uncertainty. Meanwhile, other currency pairs like BDT with EUR and GBP are also stable, trading near recent lows and averages, respectively.
Given the global climate, traders should keep an eye on energy market developments and geopolitical events in the Gulf, as these factors remain influential for the dollar and, consequently, for the Taka’s position. Overall, the Taka continues to trade within its established range, showing resilience amid mixed dollar movements.
