TODO

• Code cleanup
  • More consistent naming. Symbol v ticker v security v option. Ugh!
  • Make it clearer what all the data sources are and where/why each is used.
  • Move more code into utils.
    • Code that handles web responses and converts data from interfaces to slices.
  • Separate calculations from printing.
  • Consolidate some of the web request functions.
  • Improve error handling when there are no rows to upload.
    • Unable to upload options file: eb_2023-11-17_puts.csv could not create file: invalid argument
• Add more tests. Split code up so tests are easier to write.
• Add more details to README files.
• Can any of this be put on AWS?
  • Update to latest USE data on weekdays to use up otherwise stranded quota.
  • Generate Google Sheets on weekend; run Fri+Sat, so we get two days of quota.
• Update AES app to also build an encrypt/decrypt app to more easily add API keys.
