    ... wouldn't legging into a larger spreads (even breaking the larger spreads in half) get you a better fill price? I know when I try to get out of illiquid underlying's, including even using basic flys, I have to pull the spread apart just to exit the position. Just break these multi-leg spreads in half, enter the complicated side of the spread first, then enter the simpler side of the spread second.

    Absolutely. That does work better with manual management. What I am looking to do is to get out of a 6+ leg position once the target level is achieved on the entire position with a limit order. I am ok with slight sacrifice in pricing provided that my PT is reached.
