### Comment:
That’s only true if you let the OTM options expire worthless, which only a retard would do. You can still close the spread before market close on Friday even if you are assigned to the short call and it’ll never go over the max risk. It happened to me lol

### REPLY:
Yes when you are assigned on your short option, you are supposed to immediately call your broker and have them exercise your long option even if it is OTM. There are more fees associated with this but yes you will end up at the max loss more or less. I don't like to deal with this headache so I always close out my position before expiry
