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. 54 contracts (avg 828 vol/day, 54 traded recently)

PACB averages only 828 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 $1.50 01-21 call last traded $0.64 on 08/21 (now $0.70/$0.75) — try a limit near $0.70. Also watch the $1.00 01-21 call last traded $0.68 on 08/21 (now $0.80/$0.95) — try a limit near $0.80; the $2.00 01-21 call last traded $0.47 on 08/21 (now $0.50/$0.60) — try a limit near $0.50. Most tradeable put: the $1.00 01-15 put last traded $0.12 on 08/21 (now $0.10/$0.20) — try a limit near $0.12.
