I was searching through Google & happen to see this..

Someone actually asked whether Theta gets affected after the weekend.. And there was this nice reply with a diagram to show an example & that's so helpful!

So the answer is "yes, Theta is paid over the weekend".

Those who buy options & worrying time decay etc. like me over weekends/public holidays, hope this puts your mind at ease..[Tongue]
