1. Closed the July 22nd 2020/2030 short put vertical for a .15 debit, as it's near worthless and done its job.

2. Rolled the July 22nd 2110/2120 call side out a week to the July 29th 2115/2125 and slight strike improvement for a .75 debit. The improvement isn't much, but I like to do these improvements small and over time until I get the required movement to exit the entire setup.

3. Sold the July 29th 2085/2095 short put vert to finance the call side roll for a 1.05 credit.

As with my NDX setup, what I need now is some movement back toward the call side to exit the entire setup at or above my "scratch point."
