Triple witching is a quarterly event when stock options, index options, and index futures expire simultaneously. This time, $7.1 trillion in contracts will expire, making it the biggest on record.
Historically, markets tend to weaken around this event. The S&P 500's average return across the last 14 triple witching days is -0.5%, signaling downside pressure rather than rallies.
Bitcoin's track record in 2025 reinforces this trend:
🔹March 21: -16%
🔹June 20: -7.7%
🔹September 19: -7.5%
With crypto already the worst-performing asset class this year and tax-loss harvesting still underway, downside risk remains elevated.
Adding to the volatility, quarterly crypto options expiry hits next week. On December 26, $23.56B in BTC options and $3.78B in ETH options will expire - a setup that could bring further turbulence and potentially a weak end to the year for crypto.
