    Now that it is assigned ( which you thought you will not be) on the entire trade did you make or loose money Can you just show all the calculations ( please consider the opportunity cost) , I think agree that "This is not risk free" if it was everybody would be doing it

    It is not a question of the term,, "NO risk" is a very big claim,, if anybody posts such an outlandish claim people are going to ask questions...

    agreed. No risk is a significant term. If you think a trade is no risk, likely you don’t understand it.

    even the pure arbs I used to run had risk. In those case regulatory and every year we had to consult with lawyers to confirm the trade would still work.
