The package includes three proposals to fight VAT fraud, support businesses, and promote digitalisation. These measures are intended to improve the competitiveness of the EU economy.

EURUSD technical analysis
The EURUSD H4 chart shows that the market has reached the minimum target of the corrective wave at 1.0936 and has started to fall sharply in line with the trend. Today, 6 November 2024, the price broke below a corrective channel and declined to 1.0720. It may be relevant to consider the possibility of a fifth downward wave, initially targeting 1.0680. Once this level is reached, a new corrective structure is expected to develop, aiming for 1.0940.
The Elliott Wave structure and corrective matrix, centred at 1.0836, technically confirm this scenario. This level is a crucial pivot point for the EURUSD rate corrective wave. The market has rebounded downwards from the upper boundary of a price envelope and, in a sharp decline, has reached its lower boundary. The price could rebound to the envelope’s central line at 1.0880 today. Subsequently, a downward wave could begin, aiming for the lower boundary of the price envelope at 1.0680.
Summary
The EURUSD pair is declining as Trump maintains a strong lead in the US presidential election. Technical indicators for today’s EURUSD forecast suggest that the downward wave could continue towards the 1.0680 level.
