The September Euro appears to have run out of gas with the unwinding of the Euro/Gold spread and could return to its lows if not lower over the next few weeks.  Buy the September 125/122 bear put spread as well as sell the 129 call to collect enough premium to make this a credit spread, we are collecting $75, above the 129 level we have unlimited risk.  Our profit potential is limited to $3,750 however we would take half of that if it happens quickly.
