The way travel days is determined is something like this, if you start a trip on monday at 5 in the morning, you can board as many different trains as you want that same monday. It does not matter if you traveled just 50kms or 1000, as long as the trip starts on the same monday, you're good to go. If you start your trip that same monday but after 7 or 8 at night (I really can't remember) for record purposes your travel started Tuesday and now you can board as many trains as you want on Tuesday as well, that, and the fact that you get to sleep in the train and save a night worth of hotel or hostel, are the reason why everybody recommends traveling by night.
I really don't know the train ticket prices, but when I traveled, I bought some tickets to get to some cities and it was cheaper than wasting 1 day of Eurail. Anyway, you should check the prices online and remember that there are 1st, 2nd and even 3rd class seats in some trains. Do your math and decide what is more convenient for you
