~~ April Option Expiration Week Historically Bullish ~~ By Almanac Trader | April 17, 2017
April option expiration is generally bullish across the board with solid gains on the last day of the week, the entire week and the week after. Since 1982, DJIA and S&P 500 have both advanced 23 times in 35 years on expiration day with an average gain of just under 0.2%. Both the S&P 500 and DJIA have been up seven of the past eleven expiration days. Expiration week as a whole has a slightly more bullish track record over the past 35 years to expiration day. Average weekly gains are 1% or better for S&P 500, DJIA and NASDAQ. The bullish bias of April expiration also persists during the week after. DJIA has posted a full-week gain in eleven of the last thirteen weeks following expiration.
