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. 112 contracts (avg 386 vol/day, 112 traded recently)

CNP averages only 386 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 $43.00 07-17 call last traded $1.52 on 06/30 (now $1.10/$1.40) — try a limit near $1.25. Also watch the $47.00 01-15 call last traded $1.50 on 06/23 (now $1.30/$2.00) — try a limit near $1.50; the $43.00 08-21 call last traded $2.24 on 07/02 (now $1.20/$2.60) — try a limit near $1.90. Most tradeable put: the $43.00 07-17 put last traded $0.34 on 07/02 (now $0.10/$0.30) — try a limit near $0.20.
