The empirical evidence is conducted by applying a Markov switching approach to daily USD/IDR exchange rate, intervention data of Bank Indonesia from 2006 to 2012. The results are supporting both chartists and fundamentalist regimes. It is shown that the two regimes are persistent.

However, Bank Indonesia efforts to exert a stabilizing effect of foreign exchange interventions, the result are inconclusive.
