Do Not Exercise an Options Position

This endpoint enables users to submit a do-not-exercise (DNE) instruction for a held option contract, preventing automatic exercise at expiry. By default, Alpaca will automatically exercise in-the-money (ITM) contracts at expiry. This endpoint allows users to override that behavior. To override this behavior and submit an exercise instruction, please contact our support team.
