Can someone point me in the right direction?

First month Ttc was a bust. This month I’m going to go for it more strategically. I have ovulation test strips, so am I looking for the line to get super dark then it’s go time or should I be just having sex every day as soon as I see any sort of line??

Also is there some guide somewhere about what I’m looking for with CM and what each type means? I’ve read about people feeling their cervix for height and tightness too—- what’s that about? Help me get this baby!!
