Hi! I just wonder which threshold I should use when I compare and merge bed files? I have about 15 files from same histone chip-seq and I want to combine the files. I think I will use bedtools to do that.

There is no gold standard. Any overlap is fine, but like 50% overlap at least (-f and -pct option in bedtools intersect) is fine as well.
