I'm assuming you mean the other way around. I've had a lot of good luck with opening condors thursday morning when the weeklys open and then closing them later the next day.
I've been using this strategy with paper-trading and it's been fairly successful. I usually sell way out of the money and wait until Tuesday to minimize the risk.
Yes I agree.. end of week or even just put an OTM spread on Friday of expiration. This seems to work for me.
