Demo-Trading:
BUY TO CLOSE 6 September RUT 860 CALL @8.00
SELL TO CLOSE 6 September RUT 865 CALL @5.50
Debit: 2.50
The initial trade had been entered for a CREDIT OF 0.65. Closing the spread for 2.50 debit results in a loss of 1.85. In 6 contracts per leg = 6 * 1.85 * 100 = $1110. See order execution below.

This happened a few minutes after the QE3 announcement by the Federal Reserve.

I'm not rolling over to October as the premiums don't justify the added risk. The 900/905 Credit Call spread was priced at 0.65 at the time of this writing. Only about 4% away, in more than a month to expiration for that credit is not good enough.
