Historical option prices for this thinly-traded ticker. Live quotes are wide and stale — use where each contract actually traded plus its 30-day range to place a limit order. 124 contracts (avg 418 vol/day, 124 traded recently)

BNS averages only 418 option contracts/day, so quotes are thin and bid/ask spreads run wide. Use the last actually-traded price below to set a limit order rather than chasing the displayed ask. Most tradeable call: the $87.50 03-19 call last traded $6.40 on 07/24 (now $6.20/$7.10) — try a limit near $6.40. Also watch the $72.50 12-18 call last traded $16.45 on 07/22 (now $15.70/$18.00) — try a limit near $16.45; the $90.00 11-20 call last traded $3.19 on 07/21 (now $2.90/$3.40) — try a limit near $3.15. Most tradeable put: the $80.00 12-18 put last traded $2.10 on 07/28 (now $1.50/$2.00) — try a limit near $1.75.
