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. 57 contracts (avg 104 vol/day, 57 traded recently)

ESS averages only 104 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 $320.00 01-15 call last traded $5.30 on 08/17 (now $1.40/$4.00) — try a limit near $2.70. Most tradeable put: the $260.00 10-16 put last traded $2.96 on 08/13 (now $0.75/$3.80) — try a limit near $2.28.
