I jut looked it up, they were Apple 500 strike calls ...

By the way, I have it all recorded as a 400/500 Bull Call Spread, and when I entered the trade in early 2013 it was indeed a 400/500 BCS, but in June 2014, Apple did a 7:1 split, and then the spread turned into a 57.14/71.43 BCS, so the trade initial entry looks like this on my spreadsheet -

"Jan '15 spread 400/500 (57.14/71.43)"

Splits are very messy on tracking spreadsheets. Especially when there are options involved.
