Enrique de Miguel Agustino has reported further details, clearly
demonstrating the eclipsing SU UMa-type nature of this object.
I feed that an alias 0.08106(5) d better express the observation.
Using this orbital period, we obtained a superhump period of 0.0861 d.
These results need to be confirmed by further observations.

Clear UGSU+E behaviour in this run.
See comments below.

Variable: V1032 Oph
Date: 03-04 April
Comp star: USNO-A2.0 0825-09356260 (16:25:55.77 -03:53:32.2) with
12.82R
Check star: USNO-A2.0 0825-09353329 (16:25:42.04 -03:53:28.1) with
12.18R
Integ time: 60s
Instrument: 0.25 m reflector f/4.8
Camera: QSI-516ws
Filter: Clear
Observatory: Huelva (Spain)
Comments: Excellent observing conditions. Data of better quality
than those in previous runs, where the moonlight and
occasional clouds gave way to relatively large
uncertainties.
The run neatly confirms the UGSU+E nature of V1032 Oph !!
Run covering about 2 hours (the sun is about to wake
up ...)
In addition to the eclipses, V1032 is clearly exhibiting
superhumps. There is strong evidence of a second eclipse
by the end of the run, but its location can not be
located
accurately due to sunlight (I do not include timing of
this minimum below).
Times of minima of the eclipses are:
JD date (UT)
run01 2455286.67964(17) March 31 04h 18m 41s
run03 2455290.65062(14) April 04 03h 36m 52s
Note that heliocentric corrections have not been applied.
Merging data from run01 and run03, I find an orbital
period of P_orb=0.0795(3). More data is clearly needed to
refine this value. Keep an eye on this target!!!
Average magnitude 15.28(18) assuming mag(comp)=12.82
(which is the R mag of the comp according to USNO-A2.0.
