Triple Witching Week

This week is triple witching week which happens once a quarter on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December. For the last five years, pairs such as the Euro, GBP, and AUD have usually ended such weeks up although five years does not a statistical study make. All the expiration activity doesn't seem to predict future prices but of course your limit and stop orders can sometimes be triggered. Just one more variable that can interfere with technical analysis.
