Delta Cross-Hedge

An investment strategy that involves taking a position on a call and a put on the same underlying asset. Because the price movements of the two options are closely correlated, a negative movement on the call should be offset by a positive movement on the put and vice versa. A delta cross-hedge should create a delta neutral position.
