    ROC: 50%

    note: picked debit that is 50-60% of max credit.

    if probabilities play out, should return approx 16% over 100 trades.

  3. - Should have recalculated. profit. actual spread contract worth 1.00. should have sold between 65-75
    - shouldve considered rolling upper strike for reduced loss and selling the 103 strike for an insane profit!
