several experienced options traders said that "unlimited risk" was not your only poor choice on this strategy and there can be excellent plays with unlimited risk but this isnt one of them. No way would they have done that short strangle with a stock in your trading range of 18-24 with those premiums that were available. but whatever,,,its your money on the line I would strongly urge you to study options more before you recommend a strategy to anyone.
