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. 125 contracts (avg 156 vol/day, 125 traded recently)

BMI averages only 156 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 $125.00 11-20 call last traded $14.16 on 07/24 (now $14.00/$16.50) — try a limit near $14.16. Also watch the $130.00 11-20 call last traded $9.19 on 07/23 (now $11.40/$14.00) — try a limit near $11.40. Most tradeable put: the $125.00 11-20 put last traded $12.00 on 07/24 (now $8.50/$11.20) — try a limit near $9.85.
