Quadruple Witching

What does it mean?
A day on which contracts for stock index futures, stock index options, stock options, and single stock futures (SSF) all expire.

In Other Words...
This is similar to the triple witching hour, except that the quadruple witching hour sees also the expiry of SSFs.

Quadruple witching days occur on the 3rd Friday of March, June, September and December.
