I have experimented quite a bit with this, the key is the payout period. The market for boosts is set between two parameters, the 3.5 day mean price and the current market price. You make a lot more if steem/sbd is relatively low when you boost and relatively high when it pays out.
Has this been your experience as well? Feel free to share with me any of your learned tips and/or tricks!
