covered call
Buying the underlying asset and selling a call, so long in the asset and short in the call.
For example, let’s say that you own shares of the TSJ Sports Conglomerate and like its long-term prospects as well as its share price but feel in the shorter term the stock will likely trade relatively flat, perhaps within a few dollars of its current price of, say, $25. If you sell a call option on TSJ for $26, you earn the premium from the option sale but cap your upside
naked writing
Selling an option, but not holding the underlying asset.
Naked writers are exposed to additional risk, since they hold no position with which to hedge against the adverse movement of the underlying security’s price. If the options contract is exercised, the naked writer would be forced to buy or sell a certain number of shares at a potentially undesirable price. Naked writers try to profit by receiving premiums for writing the contracts without the need to purchase share lots.
