I think if you root around in this very group you'll find a post or two
from Todd on the topic of bid frequency which I think seems to suggest
that the most bidding traffic happens on Tuesdays based on his analysis
of some of the auctions he ran.

stop bidding, not at a fixed time. THAT is a topic about which a LOT has
been said here, it's worth reviewing before reopening that particular
debate.
