About all I did today: rolled the 234 out a mere week to the July 24th 234 on this volatility expansion for an .86 credit. Scratch at 47.37 with the break even now at 247.63. With the sell-off occurring so immediately after I put this on (pure, dumb luck, really), I didn't want to extend duration too much if it continues on its merry way and the setup is amenable to max (which will occur toward expiry of the front month, assuming price is below the short put).

Ugh. Another "senior moment." Should be the November 295's, not the 290's as shown in the header.

Rolled the July 31st 234 to the 30 delta August 7th 241 for a 1.94 credit; scratch at 44.53 with a 250.47 break even versus 252.19 spot. Now a 54 wide with a 9.47 max profit metric.
