READER,
The biggest reason I don't trade covered calls is due to the risk of the stock dropping.
If that happens, you are toast on several levels.
The first thing that happens is that you can't sell any more calls against your position.
That's because the calls are so far OTM, they are worthless.
But then, if you make the mistake of selling a call that has more premium, you LOCK IN THE LOSS if the stock moves back up.
That's a BIG NO NO.
So then, what do you do?
Simple…don't put yourself in that kind of risk in the first place.
Here's what you want to do.

A recent position of mine saw the stock drop $2,500.
A conventional covered call position would be losing $2,100 on this stock drop.
But mine was only down $466 on a $2,500 drop in the stock.
Creating a scenario where I didn't have to wait for the stock to move back up $2,500 to potentially recoup the loss.
In fact, if the stock stayed down, I would be able to make up that loss in just a few days.
I'll show you exactly how to put the odds back in your favor.

P.s. This is the downfall of most so-called trading experts. Rather than dealing with the risks, they try to pretend they don't exist. There are always risks.
And the trader who UNDERSTANDS the risks properly, can then properly manage and mitigate them.
That is what literally propels traders into successful trading.
