How to skip a job in Jenkins if another job is in the failed state

I have two Jenkins jobs for the same project:

  1. a job for the continuous build which will run whenever there are new commits
  2. a job for the nightly build, triggered by time, which does the same thing but also some additional steps which take a very long time (e.g. slow tests, Sandcastle documentation generation, etcetera)

When the continuous build is failed at the end of the day, then I don't want the nightly build to run; I already know that it will fail. How do I configure this in Jenkins?

I have already considered using conditional build steps: this way I could skip build steps, but the build would still run. I don't want a new passed or failed build to appear in the history; I just want to skip the nightly build altogether.
