The price of any good must adjust to make supply and demand equal. In the same way, the exchange rate must adjust to make the supply and demand for currencies equal.

There are a couple of theories that predict relationships between the exchange rate and other variables:

1. Purchasing power parity
2. Uncovered interest parity.

Look them up and they will give you some guidance to your questions.
