Early Assignment

Discussion in 'Options' started by Gmoyer3292, Dec 19, 2009.

  1. Is it posssible to get exercised (assigned early) on a put sell option?
    I thought you were only assigned if the stock price drops below the strike price on assignment day.
     
  2. So you were short put. Yes, you can get exercised early :) Did happen to me few times.

    Seller has obligation but no rights.
     
  3. Thanks for responding
