This is exactly what is happening by not letting IQD take its course naturally, Iraq is becoming heaven of dollar availibility.

Solutions is to delete the zeros , stop the auctioning and let the iqd take its course. Central bank auctioning is misktake and reminds me of Greenspan mistake in US not too long ago with keeping intrest down and US trusting one small group of people with its incompetant decision and whole country paying the price dearly thinking Greenspan knows all.
