Long Jun15 $66 call: 61 delta Short Mar16 $73 call: 14 delta.
I structured this trade to give me the most profit as close to my target as possible (in the case it shoots straight up), while still having a positive theta trade. For reference try to match the thetas of both options up for choosing a strike for your short.
I will continue to roll the short call each cycle to continue to eliminate basis as well.

Likely to let these expire worthless, but if we get a sharp reversal through my stop - I'll try to salvage a little bit of them.

Price is continuing to get favorable, so I am going to dabble just a bit more. I also moved up my stop level to help reduce any risk.
I added a risk reversal for June15 expiration. long $53 put: 7 delta short $65 put: 33 delta long $72 call: 35 delta

Still working with trying to keep this trade neutral to positive theta.
Sold the Apr20 54/64 put spread ($.91 cr) to reduce basis a bit further. This looks to be under some short term support here.

I've also added a synthetic strangle here to capture some high IV/theta in the process.

The original $73 call on the core call spread position had widdled down significantly over this time and small down move. I rolled it out to the Apr20 $73 call for add'l $.26. The basis on that spread is now $4.11.
