New Week Opening Gaps?

I’m wondering if we are going to see big price gaps when the market opens again tomorrow.
In the last hours of NY session, the equities rebounded sharply along with yen and dollar losing some of their gains, but I don’t think this is over.

Yen Strength

USD\JPY acts in a very anemic manner today and so far it seems to have much less steem than had yesterday. I think the pair will continue trading its short term new range between 119.30 & 120.46.
