So...my OPK test showed a surge on Saturday evening (which was surprisingly early!...by several days), and Fertility Friend and MyCycle both predicted ovulation 4 days after my surge, based on about 6 cycles worth of data. Which should I trust?
 
I would personally go with the OPK. I mean you can continue to BD into the predictions of the online monitors. But all sorts of things can affect the time you O - stress, environment, sickness. If you have a different O time this cycle, the OPK is more likely to show it.
 
Id go with the opk, so many factors can affect charting without you realising it.
 
Ack! This is so frustrating. I have lots of ovulation symptoms today (lots of EWCM...I didn't have before!, O-pains, etc.), but I got a + OPK on saturday night and a very + OPK on sunday at noon.
I just don't know what to think!!
 
I agree with the others ... the OPK.

I chart on MyCycles too and it showed an estimated ovulation date one day later than my Clearblue Fertility Monitor.
 
there's no harm in BDing according 2 both ;)
 
I would go with an OPK over charting because the OPK is actually measuring the LH surge in your body while the charting just goes off an average estimation.
