Rolling the put side up a smidge to the 175/179 for a .35/contract credit (delta balancing; put side at 50% max); scratch at 1.58.

In spite of this down move, net delta is basically dead ass flat (.45/contract). And with the short call side at 25% max, there's basically no reason to do an adjustment roll.

Rolling the 193/195 down to the 189/191 for a realized gain and a .24/contract credit (so, .48 for each 2x). Scratch at 2.04.

Rolling to the 180/182 (nearly to an iron fly) for a .70 net credit; scratch at 3.30. Yeesh, what a down move.

Covering here with 23 DTE for a 3.30/contract. A scratch if you don't count fees/comms, a small loser if you do. Best to take the buying power, redeploy in a higher probability setup.
