Every other day vs opk

I had my period on aug 20, i took clomid days 24-28, 2nd round and instead of doing opks like last month i wanted to try just bd every other day, i am also taking metformin since i have pcos, has any one else done it this way instead of opks . I did the digital last month had a positive 4 days after last clomid pill but i think it was too soon , so this month i was thinking just bd every other day till beginning od next month?? Please give me insight on this method?? Thank you
