At Square Port-Saïd in Algiers, the main reference point for the parallel market, the euro is trading at 274 Algerian dinars for purchase and 276 dinars for sale. This stability has sparked questions about whether this calm will persist or give way to a resurgence in transactions as November begins.

The Canadian dollar is offered at 171 dinars for purchase and 173 dinars for sale, while the British pound reaches 314 and 318 dinars, respectively.

Several factors could influence this trend, particularly the evolution of supply and demand on the parallel market. The needs of individuals in foreign currencies and the availability of currencies could weigh on future exchange rates.
Despite these factors, it is currently impossible to predict with certainty whether there will be an increase or decrease in the main currencies. The market could either maintain its current trend or experience new movements in the coming weeks. The question remains whether November will mark a change in dynamics for Algeria's parallel currency market or if the stability observed in October will continue until December.
The stability of the parallel currency market in Algeria has significant implications for the country's economy. A stable market can encourage investment and facilitate trade, while fluctuations can create uncertainty and impact the purchasing power of individuals. As the market continues to evolve, individuals and businesses will be closely watching exchange rates to make informed decisions.
The journalist Wissam, who covers national news, social issues, and current events in Algeria, notes that the market's future trend will depend on various factors, including supply and demand.
