Tom,

Tks for the info - again. Understand how covered calls work - but you have your money tied up in the stock when you do so. Could you not run a straddle and be somewhat protected with only a fraction of what it would cost to run covered?

Why would this not be the best use of funds?

Also, why not run a covered straddle if you are going to cover?
