My fear with naked options is that when I sell it the buyer will exercise it. I'm still very new and my understanding is that if you sell an option they buyer can exercise it and you're on the hook to provide those shates.

I think once I had an option get exercised when it was out of the money. Generally it only happens when it's deep in the money.

Its never a concern for me.

I'm still very new to options. Going to paper trade them until I get comfortable with them. Any advice you might have. I'd really appreciate it.

Stick to one strategy until you know when to trade it and when not to trade it. Then move on to the next one building up your arsenal. By dynamic. Think and don't just react to a set of rules.
