Thanks -- closer on the strike and expiry I think is better when vols are low as they have been -- I put positions on earlier I think and paid a little more vol. Certainly (in hindsight), it would have been a waste to pay for more time on CPQ and your buying the 42.5 (synthetic) was the sweetspot -- I see choosing the right strike and expiry as a fine art which I've yet to master. The right stock for the right reason at the right time is more important than both of those, of course, right?
