Interesting numbers from the CBOE Online learning center regarding expiration- cboe.com Most people believe that 90% of options expire worthless. However, this is untrue. Normally, only about 30% of options expire worthless in each monthly cycle. Only about 10% of options are exercised during each monthly cycle, usually in the final week before expiration. In fact, over 60% of all options are traded out in the marketplace. This means that buyers sell their options in the market, and writers buy their positions back to close.
