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. 72 contracts (avg 127 vol/day, 72 traded recently)

ESS averages only 127 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 $290.00 10-16 call last traded $15.50 on 06/29 (now $5.40/$8.90) — try a limit near $7.15. Also watch the $300.00 08-21 call last traded $4.30 on 07/24 (now $0.00/$2.10) — try a limit near $1.05; the $310.00 08-21 call last traded $1.83 on 07/21 (now $0.00/$0.70) — try a limit near $0.35. Most tradeable put: the $290.00 09-18 put last traded $8.00 on 07/20 (now $11.10/$13.90) — try a limit near $11.10.
