Pool Restart - help getting numbers where they need to be!

[SATX]

Our pool is 4 years old and we just had to drain and refill due to very high CYA. We learned a valuable lesson there and I am now using TFP to maintain the pool. We refilled the pool 4/21. I bought liquid stabilizer and added that 4/29. I know it takes a while to be reflected on the test. Here were my results today::
FC: 1
pH: 7.5
TA: 140
CH: 125
CYA: 20

I added chlorine (liquid) today, but my questions are about the other numbers.
Will the CYA continue to go up? I added a full bottle about 6 days ago.
Do I need to bring the TA down? I have been adding Muriatic Acid, but the pH hasn't gone below 7.5 (I am basing this on Pool Math:To lower TA you reduce pH to 7.0-7.2 with acid and then aerate to increase pH.) Keep adding?
Should I be concerned about CH at 125?

We have been maintaining our pool since the beginning, but apparently not very well (see above, drain/refill!) I want to do it right this time and avoid future problems as well as unnecessary $$$$ at the pool store! Thanks for this great resource! I have learned so much already!

Welcome to TFP!!!

Liquid CYA should show up on the test within a few hours. The solid forms may take a week.

Did you use PoolMath to know how much the CYA was expected to rise?

Ignore the TA it is of least importance to worry about.

That CH is a little low for plaster, especially if you keep lowering the pH into the lower 7s.

Welcome to TFP! Congrats on maintaining your own pool!

Here is some required reading from Pool School on water chemistry.
TFPC for Beginners
ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry

Here are the Recommended Levels for your pool.
Here are the Recommended Pool Chemicals to maintain your pool.
And use PoolMath to figure out how much of what to add to get to the recommended levels.
