Waiting for AM settlement now due to my fat finger yesterday. First time I’ve ever had an AM expiration so once SET gets published I’m hoping I can sell those again. SPX closed at 6944 yesterday but was up about 15 at the open so hoping all my 6950s go worthless shortly.
Takes 30-60 minutes after the open:
AM-settled SPX options (standard monthly expirations) are cash-settled on the third Friday morning, based on the “Special Opening Quotation” (SOQ) of the S&P 500, calculated from the opening prices of all constituent stocks, with the final value published under the ticker SET after all stocks have opened, resulting in cash profits or losses credited/debited to accounts the next day, not share delivery.

Filled at the bell: Rolled $XSP Jan 16th 692 put to Jan 20th 692 put for .83
I had this order going in pre-market with no fill. Filled immediately after bell, after which premium quickly dropped to around .70. This seems to be a good fill for being 4 pts OTM…. grabbing high premium at the volatile moment of the open may be an approach to consider often.
I was NOT filled on 696 roll, limit order of 1.10. But I will wait since we are ATM like yesterday.
