How do I Carry an Options Position for the next day in Alice Blue?

Carrying option positions with Alice Blue is straightforward. To maintain a Buy option position, you should keep the “Premium Amount.” For example, if you’re planning for a position like “Bank Nifty OCT 43100 CE Buy, Quantity 15 @ Rs. 100” with a total premium of 15*100 (1500), you need to maintain this premium to carry the position to the next day.
