Delta Neutral

Definition

Delta neutral describes an investment strategy in financial markets, including digital assets, designed to mitigate the price directional risk of an underlying asset. It involves balancing long and short positions in related instruments, such as spot assets and derivatives, so that the overall portfolio value remains largely unaffected by small price movements. The objective is to profit from other factors, like funding rates or volatility, rather than price appreciation or depreciation. This approach aims to reduce exposure to market price fluctuations.
