If I get into a Naked Call, and the stock moves to the point where I can keep half the premium I signed up for, I do a &#8220;Buy to Close&#8221; to close the position with the profit. Naked Calls are dangerous! With this position I brought in $4000 from a $8 premium and the premium went down to $4. On the 5 contracts (500 shares) it&#8217;s a $2000 profit.
