nah it is that simple, you are 100 percent going to outperform a down market....on an up market it will have to go super super up for you to not outperform but you will still have a large profit..
what can make it more complicated if you starting selling puts to help offset any gains you are missing out of..
but there is a reason on my trading platforms for options, covered calls are 'level 1' they are the easiest and most understood and least risk..if you are going to be holding onto the stock you are doing it on for a long time
