Ryan,

If you had done the June 25 at 1 5/8, instead of the August 25 at 2 3/4 your ROI per month on the position (using margin) would have been a full 10% higher. However, if you can use the higher premiums from the August call to do the sideshows, then you likely make up the difference, or beat it. To me, using one combination to make a strong return, which I then re-invest in another strong position, is a lot less speculative than trying to play the option sideshows.
