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 $80.00 12-18 call last traded $14.80 on 08/26 (now $11.40/$12.40) — try a limit near $11.90. Also watch the $85.00 03-19 call last traded $10.15 on 09/24 (now $8.20/$10.10) — try a limit near $9.15; the $90.00 11-20 call last traded $4.05 on 09/24 (now $2.90/$3.60) — try a limit near $3.25. Most tradeable put: the $90.00 12-18 put last traded $4.30 on 08/18 (now $2.50/$3.90) — try a limit near $3.20.
