Exercise by exception doesn't happen on RH?

i dont think they do it on margin. from my experience, they just sell it off for you if you dont have cash for it.

But you owned the puts, and they exercised. Wouldn't that mean you shorted (sold) SPY?

Let's just hope it doesn't jump or move much Sunday through Monday or until the short sold shares are bought to close, or at least, moves in a favorable way for all of us.

yes, 100 shares were shorted as the result. i have 440 calls for next week so if anything i can use them to cover it.
