Rolling the 1.95 long down for a 1.50 credit here on this down move; scratch at 2.80. Most don't like to do this, since it increases risk. The trade-off is that it improves your break even. I don't mind doing this here, since I started out smaller than I usually go and narrow with the spread.

Cutting this off at 2 x total credit received; covering for a 5.55 debit, so a 2.75 ($275) loser.
