AMZN daily chart.
What are the chances for AMZN to stay in-between 65.24 to 70.73 by June expiration, in 18 days?

What are the chances for AMZN to close below 65.24 or above 70.73 in 18 days?
I pondered on the 2nd question and executed the following trade on 5/25 just moments b4 the close. (click on image to enlarge)
As long as AMZN is outside of 65.24 to 70.73 I can't lose.
