How to adjust expiration --strategy #231

I'm confused about the correct format for the expiration strategy. I want the same as the default config except I want one backup per day for 60 days. I tried this command, but it didn't work. --strategy "1:1 60:7 365:30"

I was also wondering about how to set up the backup strategy. I want to keep all backups for the first 30 days and then 1 backup per day until destination is full. Would that be --strategy 30:1?
