Not seeing as much value in predefined loss. Capital reduction, protection. Less flexible rolling.

I track a 2X loss, but may or may not close/manage at that point.

Depends upon B/E, suppose we put SL and the MtM loss hit your SL but B/E is intact?

Great sense of humor, good friendship, he is very dedicated to his family, friends and work though he works hard to show that he is otherwise.
