Moving towards the end of quarter can't hurt either.
I'm not so sure. After a great October-November, we sold off in December and had our lowest close of the month on the last day of the month. EOQ is not a panacea, especially if fund managers are trying to lock in gains. Then it can become a rush for the exits.
It would make for an interesting study, but my intuition is that after a quarter of large gains, EOQ is actually a negative phenomenon, on average.
