So I'm interested in stock options. A covered call is when I own enough shares of the stock for the contract I'm writting. Now if I buy a naked call and then sell the naked call, I no longer own the contract correct? Essentially I have sold the contract to someone else to do with as they please? Or, when I sell the naked call can the buyer exercise the option strike price and I'm out money after I collection my gain on the option premium.
This is so very confusing. Thanks for any help you can offer in advance.
