Eric,
.
<<If you write a call that is in the money at expiry, what are the chances that you will be assigned? (I would think 100%, but I have no experience here.)>>
.
I actually once had 20 calls that expired with the stock closing exactly on the strike price and 14 of them were assigned.So my experience says 70%. <g>

I also once exercised long calls early to allow writting covered calls in an IRA
where spreads were not allowed.

Regards, Don
