Chico,

sorry to jump in...

Stops and overnight futures don't quite mix.

Trading is too thin and many weird things happen.
"They" quite often move a price several dozen ticks just to pick your stops and return immediately to the original price.

(The opposite is also true: you can take advantage of it by placing a target far from the price and finding in the morning that they walked the price to execute it and then back to the original level)

H.
