1.25 is a pretty tough nut to crack.

it means that if 1.25 level is touched and options are exercised by hedgers, risk managers (takers) have obligation to fill transactions

Forget 1.2500...it's tried 4 times to break 1.2515-20 area and couldn't do it...each time rallying back up to 1.2550 or higher.

you are welcome

risk hedgers (retailers) are usually trading with trend and covering their positions in options market or vice versa and risk mangers are pros taking large risk profitting from small moves in ranging spot market and premiums in options market

it is to be monitored somehow "on the fly" you need to learn about options market and watch options chains

Monday is a USA holiday so profits will come off the table today for those who were short, there is a possiblityof hitting 1.2480 before retracing to to the 1.26 levels, but the trend so far today is not indicating that. It is bullish for now but may turn at anytime so if you dont need to trade sit on your hands for a while, watch and wait!!!!!

Lets not forget what happened last Friday and the profit taking rally that happened. It may/may not happen again...but be cautious.

Anything is possible buddy, just trade with the trend either sell or buy. As long we make pips, who cares it goes North or South

Good point there!
I know it's friday and everything but this sudden surge of optimism feels a bit strange. At least for me.

it's not optimism, it's Friday and don't forget that pros can see your open positions...too many shorts so it had to go up and squeeze...
