Buying and selling rates are different.
Whatever.
As long as you place FD in a foreign currency, you are subjected to the volatility of the exchange rate, so enjoy the roller coaster ride.
Also, if the exchange rate is becoming not so favourable, you can just watch and pray hard and remember that there is always a premature withdrawal penalty which may wipes out any interest earn.
Totally agree. Last Thursday I transferred S$65K to Singapore as forex MYR to SGD is 2.935. Today it is 2.88. Difference is RM 3575.
This is the way to calculate the "Breakeven" point of your initial entry rate. Knowing a breakeven point will allow you to know if you are making or losing on your investments. The buying and selling rates are quoted by the banks, money changers after arriving at the breakeven point.

I notice that in recent months that whenever US Fed threatens to raise rates, MYR weakens. If Fed is dovish, vice versa occurs.

This week MAS will be deciding whether to weaken SGD. Most analysts are expecting MAS to keep the exchange rate policy steady. Currently the exchange is stable at 2.90.
