For those overnight gap up/down plays are you using the 30 min time frame? What do you have your std dev set to in your BBs? I use 3 instead of 2 for better accuracy when they are hit, but of course are hit less frequently than a std dev of 2.

The standard 2, I’ve messed with 3 and even 1 like an idiot but 2 seems to work well for me. For the gap up/down I only do that if the 1 hour too and bottom band are within a dollar of each other and ideally closer to .75.
