>> I think of my portfolio in terms of years down the road, while CCs still leave you plotting strategy on a daily or weekly basis. Actually, the covered call tactic doesn't interfere with a ltb&h strategy, but you are correct that it can be quite time consuming. >> you can wind up selling off part of your position and losing the chance at long-term gains. Since I operate within an ira, I do exercise a taxable event or even sacrifice my holding period by getting called out of a position.
