Followup - NBIS expensive buyback Roll - was it worth it ?

Recently I posted a trade where NBIS blew past my Aug $90 call (which I wrote a long back when NBIS was in the dumps) . I would have made $599 on the trade.

I bought back the call for a hefty price and sold a July $230 (premium $24) call for a potential 9X profit ($5772) if assigned (Net Cost basis $172)

In between NBIS had a bad day and I bought back the July call for $19 and sold an August $240 call for $26

This reduces my cost basis to $165 and potential Profit if assigned to ~$7440 (~ 12.5 x of the original )

The August call can be bought back for $64.6 giving me a profit of $3110 today (5x of the original)
