I usually bid Reserve in training or vacation months but with the shadow days I've heard guys bid max credit.

WSY?

Thanks.
Additionally, bidding max-credit will make PBS only get you into the top half of the LCW, not the MOST credit. You can set a bid that will push you to the highest credit possible(touching the shadow period). I would preference the highest combination of trip value you can in the shadow period.
