Managing overnight risk in index futures

For me, it's more about sizing down my positions rather than completely avoiding overnight holds. I'm still using options overlays, but focusing on further OTM strikes to manage premium costs.

I've definitely reduced my overnight futures exposure. The whipsaws lately make it not worth the potential headache for me. Options are too expensive.

Good question. I'm actually doing a bit of both. Smaller futures positions, and when I do hold, I'm finding short-dated hedges useful to cap downside. It's a tricky environment for sure.
