well, some brokers charge a lot more for options getting exercised than commission if you close out the trade yourself, so have a look and do a bit of calculation

I suspect I'm making this too difficult, but here's my question. I'm long Disney Dec 30 calls and I'm short and equal number of Dec 31 calls. The stock is now at 32.18. As long as DIS remains above 31, is it advisable to not take any action to close this spread and let it go to expiration? I think I will be credited with $1.00 upon expiration without needing to do anything with the spread before Friday. Am I missing something? Thanks to all who take the time to help others make sense of this game!
