  1. strike @200, June/July/Aug.
     
  2. After yesterdays doji on the daily, price will usually need at least a few more days to provide some sort of failure before beginning a down move, IMO. Therefore, you could have saved yourself a bit of time decay. Hope your ability to read price is better than mine and good luck
