Post From: OPTIONS QUESTION FOR SIERRA CHARTS

This is really a question for your broker.
It's not a Sierra issue - whatever the answer is, it will be the same no matter what software you're using to chart the option.
But it may be different for different brokers - brokers have some leeway in setting their margin policies, as long as they meet CME's minimums.

This gives some basic information, seems rather complex:

One more reason I'm not trading futures options. :-)
