Mike: ---->Do your various systems try to take triple witching into account? Don't know about the others, but mine does --- even to the extent that it won't give me a tradeable signal the day of, and most of the time the day before, also ---- due to the 80 - 85 % accuracy rules under which it must abide.

Mike, I think that some of the traders are position traders and might take a short today if their systems warranted the call. I think many don't do anything on triple witching. My indicators this afternoon gave me two short term trades that would have been good for two points each, had I been really trading them today. Each trade would have lasted for under ten minutes. So I think that what you have is differing views on today depending upon the type of trader you are and the system you are using. There are a finite number of indicators and the most common are used by the most traders. It is the interpretation and finesse that either makes it or breaks it. Other viewpoints on my statement above are appreciated. -Scott
