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 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 $1.00 01-21 call last traded $0.68 on 08/21 (now $0.85/$1.00) — try a limit near $0.85. Also watch the $2.00 01-21 call last traded $0.47 on 08/21 (now $0.60/$0.75) — try a limit near $0.60; the $0.50 01-21 call last traded $0.85 on 08/21 (now $1.15/$1.50) — try a limit near $1.15. Most tradeable put: the $1.50 12-18 put last traded $0.53 on 08/07 (now $0.25/$0.40) — try a limit near $0.33.
