How Does Delta Hedging Differ from Static Hedging?

Delta hedging is a dynamic strategy that requires frequent adjustments to the hedge position to maintain a zero-Delta portfolio as the underlying price changes. Static hedging, conversely, involves establishing a fixed hedge position that is not adjusted over time.

Static hedging is simpler but less precise in neutralizing risk.
