>> is that to imply that you're satisfied as long as you hit a certain profit point?

No, sir, it isn't. I don't use covered calls as trading tools or as hedges, but rather to generate a modest income stream from my core holdings without resorting to selling stock. My results are more dependent on wasting time premium (theta) and volatility than on the underlying reaching a specific price, and in the best case scenario, I keep both the stock and the premium.

You might want to check out the covered call thread that FaultLine started.
