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. 68 contracts (avg 219 vol/day, 68 traded recently)

LAZ averages only 219 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 $45.00 09-18 call last traded $1.56 on 08/21 (now $0.70/$1.25) — try a limit near $0.98. Also watch the $60.00 09-18 call last traded $0.10 on 08/21 (now $0.00/$0.75) — try a limit near $0.10; the $50.00 09-18 call last traded $0.29 on 08/21 (now $0.00/$0.40) — try a limit near $0.20. Most tradeable put: the $40.00 12-18 put last traded $2.95 on 08/21 (now $2.35/$3.00) — try a limit near $2.68.
