The "Open Postion" group shows the margin and PnL% according your margin mode Configuration settings (maximum, original or current margin/absolute risk). Whereas the "Position & Model Trade Analysis" can be individually configured to show the current margin or absolute risk (calculated from what is on the option chain grid) or to use the same margin mode as that which is set in the Configuration settings.
