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. 105 contracts (avg 796 vol/day, 104 traded recently)

BNS averages only 796 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 $82.50 03-19 call last traded $10.60 on 10/05 (now $12.20/$14.70) — try a limit near $12.20. Also watch the $92.50 11-20 call last traded $2.20 on 10/23 (now $2.90/$3.70) — try a limit near $2.90; the $90.00 11-20 call last traded $3.20 on 10/16 (now $4.70/$6.50) — try a limit near $4.70. Most tradeable put: the $92.50 11-20 put last traded $1.80 on 10/23 (now $0.85/$1.20) — try a limit near $1.02.
