A quick definition of triple witching session:

Triple Witching Session: A triple witching session is a term used in the stock market to describe the expiration of three different types of financial contracts on the same day. These contracts include stock index futures, stock index options, and stock options. This can lead to increased volatility and trading activity as investors adjust their positions before the contracts expire.

A more thorough explanation:

TRIPLE WITCHING SESSION

A triple witching session is a day when three different types of financial contracts expire simultaneously. These contracts include stock index futures, stock index options, and stock options.

On a triple witching session, investors may experience increased volatility and trading activity as traders close out their positions in these contracts. For example, if an investor holds a stock option that is expiring on a triple witching day, they may choose to exercise the option or sell it before it expires. This can lead to a surge in trading volume and price fluctuations.

Another example is when a trader holds a stock index future that is expiring on a triple witching day. They may need to buy or sell stocks to offset their position in the futures contract, which can also impact the overall market.

A triple witching session is a significant event in the financial markets that can cause increased volatility and trading activity. It occurs when three different types of financial contracts expire simultaneously, which can lead to a surge in trading volume and price fluctuations. Investors and traders need to be aware of these days and take appropriate measures to manage their positions and minimize their risks.
