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. 115 contracts (avg 617 vol/day, 115 traded recently)

BNS averages only 617 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 12-18 call last traded $8.47 on 09/17 (now $5.10/$6.40) — try a limit near $5.75. Also watch the $92.50 03-19 call last traded $7.30 on 09/21 (now $3.80/$5.40) — try a limit near $4.60; the $92.50 10-16 call last traded $2.00 on 09/25 (now $0.45/$0.80) — try a limit near $0.63. Most tradeable put: the $87.50 12-18 put last traded $1.75 on 09/18 (now $2.00/$2.25) — try a limit near $2.00.
