Options Expiry Dates

Hi
Along with many other traders I avoid intra-day trading around the times of 'red flags', in particular NFP's.
Is there also a strong argument for avoiding option expiry days?
Thanks for any forthcoming help.

Also, any observations re the last trading day of the month?
Cheers.

Last trading day of the month... you should be on the watch out for big fix-related interest which will then promptly finish at 4pm GMT. I say should - because in practice, the best I've got out of it is to not read too much into strong moves that happen in the couple of hours before 4. As edges go, there are better.

And options - in spot, there are options expiring daily. Check IFR, Oanda or anyone else that imports IFR data for info.

Hi
Thanks for the response.
Much appreciated.
