The New Zealand Dollar’s recovery attempt seen after the release of hotter New Zealand inflation figures and upbeat Chinese data has been limited below 0.5750, and the pair trimmed gains shortly afterwards, returning to 0.5725 during Monday’s European session.Price pressures accelerated to a 3% year

Following recent licensing frameworks and the international exposure of the PLPC Platform, the American-born biotechnology system — backed by Q1 publications, filed patents, FDA-aligned audits, and UAE-based legal and banking partners — consolidates its presence across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
OGRD Alliance L.L.C-FZ, an international biotechnology organization led by its Chief Scientific Officer, Oncopathologist Dr. Ramón Gutiérrez Sandoval, M.D., announces the expansion of its PLPC-DB phospholipoproteomic module, supported by the OncoVix Program, from Dubai toward Asia and the MENA region. The initiative reinforces the group’s position as a bridge between American scientific innovation and global life-science investment.
The expansion follows participation in international biotechnology conferences and the formalization of manufacturing and licensing agreements with strategic brokers and consultancies in Japan and Singapore. The Dubai hub now acts as the group’s financial and logistical center for Asia and the Middle East.
The PLPC Platform
The proprietary PLPC (Phospholipoproteomic Complex) integrates four scientific and regulatory pillars:

• PLPC-DB, a non-cellular immunobiological module validated under FDA-aligned documentation for adaptive biotechnology.
• PLPC-NX, called ABIMPROSYC, a GRAS-certified nutritional technology platform synchronized with circadian and metabolic regulation.
• STIP (Structural Traceability and Immunophenotypic Platform), ensuring ex vivo validation, cross-jurisdictional reproducibility, and real-world-evidence compliance.

The platform’s scientific validation pillar is supported by 11 Tier-1 congress presentations (ASCO, ESMO, SITC, CAP-25, BioJapan 2025), five Q1-indexed papers listed in PubMed, three international patent families filed in the United States, Japan, and Australia, and two independent pre-FDA regulatory audits confirming data integrity and traceability.

OncoVix Program

The OncoVix Program documentation network encompasses hundreds of anonymized dossiers divided into validated sub-cohorts, representing thousands of applications under controlled real-world-evidence conditions — demonstrating that biotechnology originating in America can achieve measurable and reproducible outcomes meeting global standards of safety and transparency.
“Our goal has always been to merge ethics, evidence, and scalability,” said Dr. Ramón Gutiérrez Sandoval, Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of OGRD Alliance. “From America to Dubai and now toward Asia and MENA, OncoVix and PLPC-DB illustrate how data-driven innovation can transcend borders and advance global biotech standards.”
The adjudication and asset-licensing process of the PLPC Platform is supported by leading UAE legal firms and banking brokers, ensuring regulatory transparency for forthcoming strategic transactions.
Dr. Gutiérrez, recipient of the Visionary Award 2025 as recognized by industry peers, is also scheduled as a principal speaker at the year-end biotechnology and investment congresses in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, highlighting the region’s growing role in next-generation life-science investment.

S&P 500 Technical Analysis for Today with tradeCompass (October 20, 2025)

Bullish above: 6,716
Bearish below: 6,709
Current price: 6,718.5
Primary Bias: Slightly bullish
Partial Targets: 6,724 → 6,728.5 → 6,737 → 6,743 → 6,757.5

S&P 500 Performance Snapshot

The index’s performance remains resilient on a multi-month basis, with the six-month gain of nearly 25% underscoring the strong risk appetite seen through much of 2025 despite recurring volatility.

Friday, we also had a significant move (crash?) on previous metals and I wrote about Palladium analysis in my video this morning, as this may also play out as a hint going forward for the S&P 500.

S&P 500 Market Context & Directional Bias

At the time of this analysis, E-mini S&P 500 futures (ES) trade at 6,718.5, just above the bullish threshold at 6,716, which aligns with today’s Point of Control (POC) and yesterday’s Value Area High (VAH). This confluence provides a structural support zone for short-term bulls.

However, traders are still digesting the sharp drop from Friday, October 10, when former U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff-related tweet about China sparked a broad selloff. That move rattled market sentiment and left traders split:

• Bears argue the S&P 500 has become overextended and ripe for another correction.

• Bulls frame it as a “taco trade,” a pattern they’ve seen before—Trump issues a tough statement, markets dip, and then rebound once he softens his stance.

The tradeCompass methodology helps navigate precisely these confusing environments. Rather than betting on one narrative, we define clear key levels for both bullish and bearish setups, letting price action confirm which side takes control.

Today’s S&P 500 Futures Key Levels & Partial-Profit Strategy

Upside (Bullish Path):
• 6,724 – First partial-profit zone under a liquidity pool, ideal for quick risk reduction.
• 6,728.5 – Next level of interest, often acting as short-term resistance where intraday traders take partial gains.
• 6,737 – Third target, corresponding to an area of recent high trading activity.
• 6,743 – Level matching the October 15 VAH, a notable resistance cluster.
• 6,757.5 – Final upside target, aligning with the second upper VWAP deviation (Oct 16) and just below the October 15 high.

Downside (Bearish Path):
If ES closes below 6,709, bias shifts bearish.
• 6,704 – Initial liquidity pocket and first downside scalp target.
• 6,698 – Next potential reaction zone from previous absorption.
• 6,672 – Deeper swing-level target.
• 6,660 – Final extension zone; high reward but higher risk.

Educational Insight – The Value Area

The Value Area marks where roughly 70% of all trading volume occurred during a session. It gives traders a sense of where the market has found fair value.

• The Value Area High (VAH) shows where buyers previously stopped accepting higher prices.

• The Value Area Low (VAL) shows where sellers stopped pushing lower.

• The Point of Control (POC) represents the single price level with the most traded volume—often acting as a magnet for price retests.

Professional traders use these zones to identify whether value is shifting higher or lower, indicating potential trend continuation or market balance. In the tradeCompass approach, VAH, VAL, and POC form the foundation for directional bias and partial-profit mapping.

Trade Management Reminders

• Take only one trade per direction per tradeCompass plan.

• After hitting TP2, move your stop to breakeven to protect your gains.

• Avoid placing stops beyond the opposite threshold (6,709 in this case).

• Confirmation methods may vary: some prefer waiting for a candle close above/below a threshold, while others act immediately when conditions are met.

Professional Reminder for S&P 500 Traders Today

This tradeCompass report is a decision-support tool, not investment advice. All trading carries risk, and results can differ significantly from expectations. Always align trades with your personal risk tolerance and management strategy.

Fundamental
Overview

The USD strengthened a bit
on Friday following some positive Trump’s comments on China as Treasury yields
bounced and erased the Thursday’s losses. Overall, the US dollar performance
has been mixed as markets have been driven by quick changes in risk sentiment
since Trump’s tariffs threat.

On the domestic side, the
US government shutdown continues to delay many key US economic reports. The
dollar “repricing trade” needs strong US data to keep going, especially on the
labour market side, so any hiccup on that front is weighing on the greenback.

The BLS will release the US
CPI report on Friday despite the shutdown, so that’s going to be a key risk
event. That will need to be seen in the context of US-China relations and any
negative shock by that time though. If things go south, then the CPI will not
matter much as growth fears will trump everything else.

On the AUD side, the
commodity currency sold off aggressively across the board following Trump’s
tariff threat on China. Given the close link between China and Australia on the
trade side, the market increased the dovish bets on the RBA given the new risk.
Eventually, the AUD bounced back following more soothing comments from Trump
and other US officials. Nevertheless, the currency has been mostly rangebound
since the tariff threat and it looks like the market is just waiting for a
clear breakthrough on that front.

On the monetary policy
side, the RBA kept everything unchanged at the last meeting with RBA Governor
Bullock not offering much in terms of forward guidance other than the usual
data dependency and meeting by meeting approach to interest rate decisions.

AUDUSD
Technical Analysis – Daily Timeframe

On the daily chart, we can
see that AUDUSD is consolidating between the 0.6520 resistance and the 0.6440
support. The market participants will likely continue to play the range until
we get a breakout on either side.

AUDUSD Technical
Analysis – 4 hour Timeframe

On the 4 hour chart, we can
see more clearly the recent rangebound price action caused by the new US-China
trade tensions. The sellers will likely continue to lean on the resistance to
keep targeting a break below the support, while the buyers will either wait for
a pullback into the support or a break above the resistance to pile in for a
rally into the major trendline.

AUDUSD Technical
Analysis – 1 hour Timeframe

On the 1 hour chart, there’s
not much else we can add here as we remain stuck in this range for the time
being. The red lines define the average daily range for today.

Upcoming Catalysts

The focus remains
on the US-China developments but on Friday we will also get the US CPI report and the US flash PMIs.
