* Continuos: This type of hedging starts neutralizing Delta immediately and it buy/sell the instrument to mantain delta-zero for every price fluctuation. The advantage is that delta will be always next to zero. The disadvantage is that a huge amount of operations will be needed to mantain delta next to zero so we will have high costs of transactions and spreads. Continuos Hedging is usually used when the profit target is the free risk rate.\\ | * Continuos: This type of hedging starts neutralizing Delta immediately and it buy/sell the instrument to mantain delta-zero for every price fluctuation.

+ | Delta 0 with tolerance-: allows you to set a threshold for the value of the delta to be protected, so not delta to 0, but for example +/- 2 €. The system will keep the strategy delta within the set threshold. As soon as the delta exceeds the threshold (positive or negative), the delta will be brought to 0 and the set thresholds will revert to +/- 2 € in the example. | ||

+ | The "Contracts" mode is equivalent to using the "Delta 0 with tolerance" that can be set on the Delta Thresholds tab. Each contract has its own delta value therefore, in the example, setting a minimum quantity of 2 shares (with a delta 1 €) is equivalent to having set 2 € in the Delta Threshold value.\\ | ||
+ | For all other modes (Time Interval, Timo of Day, Price Change) the Delta Threshold acts as primary filter, so until you have exceeded the set value the hedging system will not make corrections independently of any other setting frequency. | ||
