Every trader has different objectives and risk tolerance. Never follow a strategy blindly and always do your own homework. Covered calls, but aren't they bearish? Covered calls can be a confusing topic. You are essentially betting that a stock will not go above a given strike price by expiration. Seems bearish right? Or at best neutral.
