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. 114 contracts (avg 591 vol/day, 114 traded recently)

BNS averages only 591 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 $75.00 03-19 call last traded $18.35 on 09/10 (now $17.70/$18.90) — try a limit near $18.30. Also watch the $72.50 11-20 call last traded $20.40 on 09/10 (now $19.00/$20.40) — try a limit near $19.70; the $90.00 11-20 call last traded $5.21 on 09/11 (now $3.70/$4.40) — try a limit near $4.05. Most tradeable put: the $92.50 10-16 put last traded $1.40 on 09/18 (now $2.10/$2.55) — try a limit near $2.10.
