Friday September 9 Morning Notes

Put on another strangle in NAV yesterday, missed an opportunity to load up on a straddle as well when IV suddenly dropped out of nowhere before ticking back up. Cancelled my HPE straddle order when I got my NAV fill, then watched HPE drop... Also spent the morning y'day working on my "social media" laptop, as I upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04, then dealt with driver problems. Up and running now though!
