So naked call writing is so dangerous because you own nothing to start. If you placed a strike on X at let's say $32, but the stock actually hits $40, you'd have to go and purchase the stock at $40 on the open market and sell it for $32 right? Thus taking a huge hit because your gains/losses cannot be capped like a covered call on stocks you actually own?

Correct again! It's UNLIMITED loss exposure...
