Ben, I'm glad this is working for you, however, I am wondering
if there might've been a typo in your original description:

you said:

Above, the puts are (1300 - 1275) points otm, and the calls
are (1400 - 1300) 100 points otm, and 1 month further out.
In this situation, I don't think you'll see a net credit.

So, perhaps this was a typo? and you meant to say Jan 1325
puts, which would be 75 points otm?

This is more in line with your recent note:
