I try to post an article shortly after options expiration in which I report on expired options and any actions I took in the week leading up to options expiration.
I missed doing so in October, choosing to cover October's expired options in my Options Update of September and October.
This article covers the options that were scheduled to expire on 19 November.
When options expire, the obligations I have related to those options disappear.
For puts, the margin set aside as collateral gets released, and the possibility of having to buy shares disappears. Likewise, for covered calls, the possibility that my shares will be called away disappears. I consider the options income associated with expired options to be secured.
Sometimes, an option is at-the-money or even in-the-money, and, consequently, the risk of assignment is high. To avoid assignment, I'd need to either close the option or roll forward the option to a later expiration date.
