    "With the lack of domestic events, the market is expected to 
track external factors, in particular U.S. CPI and (Federal 
Reserve Chairman Ben) Bernanke's testimony," KBC bank said. 
    "Until then, we do not assume any major adjustments in the 
exchange rate," the bank wrote in a note. 
    Piotr Matys, analyst at 4Cast in London, said room for the 
crown to firm was limited, unless Bernanke's testimony to 
Congress eased market concerns over U.S. subprime mortgages and 
risk appetite improved.
