I found the bottom 2 trades interesting. And think that they were a spread.
So i remodeld them:

It is (nearly) a delta-neutral strategy farming that theta until friday if SP does not move much.
Also depending on your portfolio it may free up a lot of margin because of the put that far out. Delta is only ±0.2 in the area of interest (880-920) which is not much compared to the ~0.5 you can get with a direct vertical spread. So it got more POP if both sides are closed on friday after the short put has no money in it left.
I think i will try 1 of those as an experiment (albeit choosing 895/825 diagonal as those are profitable from 880-950; basically between the call & put-walls).
