Excellent breakdown - thank you. In your third paragraph you meant to put "230/235". I had to go back and check from your breakdown below.
Like you said, your results may be skewed because the trades were done at different times. Next time you are doing one of these trades, would you mind doing a quick comparison of the simultaneous differences between strike price differences of 2.5, 5 and 10? I think that would be really useful information for all of us (with all centred on the same strike price unlike the one above)? I have done a couple of these now, but have done it with a strike price difference of 10 with fewer contracts. I agree that the commission price difference makes a minimal overall effect.
