    That's not how it works.

    If you sell a Put say at $42.80 you collect a premium but there is a margin during and up to the expiry date. Since the share price is now unlikely to go below $42.80 by the expiry date, the margin is reducing and will become zero after the expiry date.

    If you've bough the Put you've paid the premium but there is no margin. In this case as the share price won't close below $42.80 by tomorrow your loss is the premium you have paid.
