Keith, the high premium just means high volatility.....not necessarily up or down trend.

I am doing much the same thing you are with a portion of my portfolio, but keep a sell stop on the stock (mental or otherwise), in case we get "the big dump". This may leave you with naked calls so be sure you are cleared to sell naked calls before you do this if you use actual stops.
