As a quantitative analyst at a trading institution, you are asked to design and implement a hedging strategy to manage the risk of a short-term (e.g., 3-month expiry) call option portfolio. This portfolio comprises multiple call options with varying strike prices and expiration dates, facing potential significant market volatility.
Walk me through how you would leverage option Greeks, specifically Delta and Gamma, to construct and maintain an effective hedging strategy. What practical challenges would you anticipate during implementation? How would you quantify the impact of these challenges, and what advanced strategies would you propose to optimize hedging effectiveness and minimize residual risk?
