  1. They were dropping vols in the last hour on Friday like before long w/e…Are they betting on markets to be closed on Monday?

    This reminds me Atty…where is our resident Uber G ?? Banned?
    I expect “it” to show up here with the new handle “Neil_Hates-Bushes” any moment now

    it's going to hit me here on the Island on the south shore... models say it could be pretty bad, weird direction for a hurricane to take.

    hopefully i'm not completely screwed... up to 80mph sustained winds would tear shit up here with a big storm surge.

  7. Yeah, it's not too late to buy the straddle. There is virtually no downside. I had bought the 110 straddle. I switched from 110 to 105 on friday. The 105 straddle was bought at 12.85. It's north of 13 right now.
