Has anyone here had a personal experience where you sold an option that was in-the-money at expiration, but where you were not assigned? I believe it is not a guarantee that assignment will occur, but I have not had a case where I have not been assigned on an in-the-money option at expiration. Seems like this would be a very rare occurrence.

      I have been assigned on an option that was out of the money at expiration, does that count?

      Ive read many cases of it happening. But as you noted, it is an extremely rare occurrence

      Yes that happens sometimes. Congratulations on your windfall! Don’t spend that yummy premium all in one place 😅
