You would be wize to try this during the summer. Buy the cash close sell the cash open.
I downloaded historical SPY from Yahoo Finance going all the way back to 1993. Backtested buying one share at close and selling back that share at open the next day. After 25 years, I netted 0% profit, not counting commissions and slippages.

Total cost of purchase: $788,966.24,
Total receipt of sale: $788,983.23.
Total profits: $16.99.
