Right on the money backwoods hunter. Your observations are dead on. I agree 100%, my experience is the same. Even tho I like hunting overcast days better the movement is just like you said.

Clear and cold for me. I love hunting when it's around 20 degrees and Sunny in Early November. Better be ready because the bucks will be cruising. Alot of times when it's overcast the wind is stronger= less movment. Sky conditions don't seem to matter nearly as much as the weather.

unless its late season when theres snow on the ground, for some reason i like to hunt bright sunny, crisp, cool days, those seem to work best for me

I don't know if clouds or sun make them move better so much as time of year, temperature, and barometric pressure?

I do know that I've killed more bucks with the bow on bright sunny days than I have cloudy.
