Delta hedging keeps directional exposure neutral by trading the underlying as the option's Delta changes. It needs speed, low cost, capital — retail usually lacks all three. Short gamma (naked puts/calls) forces hedging under pressure.
The AI filter blocks naked short gamma near expiry when Gamma and Theta are high. Defined-risk spreads avoid the hedging trap entirely. Understand hedging to respect why you should not fight it naked.
