Agreed. Often very important. Especially higher beta stocks. I play with modified rules when I am trying to get assigned within the next few attempts. I may push my luck hard with ATM strikes for first third of a position, then it can take a while to finish as I try to get the perfect entry. Which I cant possibly know in advance anyway.
