With the USDJPY closing the week around 159.67, I'm looking at potential gap risk for Monday's open, especially given the US jobs data released on Friday. While the overall trend remains bullish, significant economic news can cause sharp moves. I'll be monitoring the overnight interbank rates closely to gauge sentiment before the Sydney session begins.

Also considering how light trading volumes were due to the holiday on Friday might exaggerate any gap. Best to be prepared for volatility.
@chloetaylor77 I agree, the Friday close around 159.67 is definitely a point of interest for potential gap risk. The US jobs data was solid, and that could easily push DXY higher if the Fed stays hawkish. I'm expecting a bit of a retest of the 20 SMA near 159.60 on Monday, or maybe a gap up if sentiment is strong.
