Triple Witching Day, which occurs every year on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December, is a special trading day when stock options, index options, and futures expire simultaneously.
This leads to increased market volume and sharp price movements. June 20, 2025, will be an even more critical date because it falls right after a market holiday in the U.S.
For investors, Triple Witching is full of opportunities and becomes even more effective during periods of increased retail trading. The volatility on these days can also bring arbitrage opportunities. However, to benefit from these advantages, strong market monitoring and quick execution are essential.
Circle, Tesla, and CoreWeave: Highlighted Stocks
Circle (CRCL) has shown an incredible surge recently. The stock, which went public on June 5, rose nearly 540%, approaching $200. The passing of the GENIUS Act in the Senate played a significant role in this rise. With regulatory support, Circle has become the center of investor attention.
Tesla (TSLA) draws attention with its option volume during Triple Witching periods. Call options at the $330 level have seen intense demand. The increased retail investor interest has caused a significant rise in volume. However, a decline in fundamentals suggests caution.
CoreWeave (CRWV) surprised the market with its massive investments in AI infrastructure. Since March, its shares have increased by 340%. The company’s $23 billion capital expenditure plan is on investors’ radar. Bank of America’s evaluations have also increased interest in CoreWeave.
During Triple Witching periods, individual stocks can show larger price fluctuations than indexes. While volume in large indexes like the S&P 500 concentrates around specific price levels, stocks like Circle, Tesla, and CoreWeave can experience more severe intraday price movements.
Momentum trading and scalping strategies can succeed in high volatility. However, quick decision-making and a good reading of market depth are necessary. Additionally, selling out-of-the-money options or using strategies like straddles can balance risk and reward.
Triple Witching Day offers a unique opportunity for both short-term gains and gaining insight into market structure. However, managing risks on these days is the most critical factor for success.
