    Why does the system block full margin if I execute only one leg on Basket order?

    If you have hedge position the system blocks full margin due to the placement of limit order. Because until execution, the system cannot confirm whether a hedge will exist. To safeguard risk, it blocks the full margin first and only releases the excess once the hedge is established.  This is only in the case of limit order.

    Under market order the system executes the order for only required margin.

    If I already hold a Put Long Options position and place a Futures Long position later, will I get hedge margin benefit immediately or will I be required to provide full margin for the Futures Position ? What happens if I square off one leg and hedge is broken? Does margin benefit apply to both Buy-first and Sell-first hedge structures? Does margin benefit apply across different scrips? Can I hedge using weekly options? What happens to margin benefit near expiry?
