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.
