Indicator Background Job creation is one of the most important leading indicators of overall economic activity. The release of US Non-Farm Employment Change is highly anticipated by the markets, and an unexpected reading can affect the direction of EUR/USD. Nonfarm Employment Change was outstanding in October, jumping to 271 thousand. This crushed the estimate of 181 thousand. The markets are expecting a sharp drop in November, with the forecast standing at 201 thousand. Will the indicator repeat and beat the estimate? Sentiment and Levels Draghi has a tendency to surprise the markets, and the ECB is expected to announce additional monetary easing later on Thursday. This could lead to a further drop towards parity.
