I like this trade, Anthony. How do you handle these calendars? Do you pre-determine your profit and exit, or do you try to ride it up to expiration of the short option? Also, 49 days to expiration of the Sep contract seems like a long time. How does the length of this trade compare to your successful FSLR trade, which I assume was also a time spread?
