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 5 vol/day, 29 traded recently)

BCPC averages only 5 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 $165.00 11-20 call last traded $10.40 on 06/05 (now $9.50/$13.50) — try a limit near $10.40. Also watch the $170.00 11-20 call last traded $10.50 on 07/10 (now $7.30/$11.00) — try a limit near $9.15; the $175.00 11-20 call last traded $5.00 on 05/29 (now $5.10/$8.70) — try a limit near $5.10. Most tradeable put: the $165.00 11-20 put last traded $9.90 on 07/02 (now $5.20/$9.50) — try a limit near $7.35.
