Options help a great deal to relieve overnight concerns. If you're short a futures contract, you can always buy a call option contract to protect against an upside surge. Buy a put to protect your long. I generally prefer this to stops as stops get picked off in thin, erratic, overnight sessions.

Are these options on futures contracts? Simply create the spread on the TT platform and TT will generate the implied bid / ask spread for you. Then submit the contract request to the exchange and they'll create the exchange defined spread for you.

As @MattZ pointed out above, the free demo version of the TT platform includes our full suite of options trading tools. https://optimusfutures.com/TradingTechnologies-Platform-Demo.php

Yes, we'd sometimes play off of spoos and / or word from the bond pit at CBOT. We had some specific arb signals for 30 year activity...if Tom Baldwin was buying a backward swipe of your scalp. If he as selling, a forward swipe.
