triple witching fri night in states, page-5

    It's the day in US markets when Stock Options, Index Options and Index Futures all expire. SO's and IO's trade monthly but IF's expire quarterly so there are 4 triple witching days per year. Often there is increased volatility in markets since traders arbitrage between Options, Futures and Shares.
