Options Expiration & Assignment
Regardless if trade weekly or monthly options you are going to consistently go through expiration each year. That said, you should feel 100% comfortable with the expiration, exercise and assignment process when you eventually encounter it - because you undoubtedly will if you plan to trade options long-term for income.
Our goal is to make sure you understand the logistics of how each process works and the parties involved. If you don’t feel confident in the processes or have questions that you just can't seem to get answered, then this section will help you.

"Thanks for the daily videos Kirk. It’s great to see your methodology and mindset behind why you do what you do. It is very much appreciated and helps me understand what to look for in a trade as well as how to manage my trades. The new PRO membership is legitimately a game-changer for my finances."

"Being relatively new to trading, I need to get the basic understanding down before I can even begin to develop my own trading style. I am trading some of Kirk's trades and tracking all of them, learning from a doer not just a talker. Thanks for everything!"
- Fred Geschwill (Woodburn)
"I've made several successful, standard option calls before but now I realized luck was on my side. I'm looking for safer, options strategies for monthly income, as you so well demonstrated and it’s been generating exactly the type of income I'm looking to make - amazing."
- David Deutsch (Buenos Aires)
"Fairly new to the membership area but not new to options trading by any means. I joined about 8 months ago in November and it has been very profitable so far. Thanks for the great work!"
