What happens to an account if a single-leg US equity option finishes in the money at expiration: auto-exercise under the OCC $0.01 rule, the resulting long or short share position, whether a margin, cash, or IRA account can hold it (50% Reg T, $2,000 minimum for shorts, no shorts in cash/IRA), P&L and break-even, the trap zone (exercised but still losing), and pin risk near the strike. Optionally tests the price minus and plus an expected move. Deterministic arithmetic on your inputs; no market data.
