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. 71 contracts (avg 110 vol/day, 71 traded recently)

PKG averages only 110 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 $240.00 09-18 call last traded $17.27 on 08/19 (now $7.50/$9.20) — try a limit near $8.35. Also watch the $250.00 01-15 call last traded $25.90 on 08/11 (now $12.60/$15.50) — try a limit near $14.05; the $240.00 10-16 call last traded $22.70 on 08/07 (now $9.90/$12.40) — try a limit near $11.15. Most tradeable put: the $250.00 10-16 put last traded $15.60 on 07/30 (now $11.80/$13.50) — try a limit near $12.65.
