Hi Agent. If you have "in the money" calls/puts on expiration date, you can always send a message to your broker. About a month or two ago, TDAmeritrade closed out my itm calls at 10:30a.m. OUCH! They ended up giving me ten free trades after I called and threw a fit, but I would have made a heck of a lot more if they hadn't gone outside their norm and sold them so early in the day. Now, I e-mail them every Friday morning and ask them to please not close any itm calls/puts and they mark my account. I just make sure I close them out before the bell.
