The unsupported field that the parser found was "SetOption(".
The online help file for SetOption does list the field MarginRequirement
but, as you surmised and the Readme confirms, it was introduced in 4.51.

Subject: [amibroker] Re: using POSITIONSCORE and margin requirement
When I try the follwing code
SetOption("SetOption("MarginRequirement", Margin);//
I get the errror
Unsupported field in SetOptions
Is this beacause I am using Amibroker 4.5?
The help file for SetOption does not list the field
MarginRequirement..
