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. 73 contracts (avg 128 vol/day, 73 traded recently)

ESS averages only 128 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 $300.00 08-21 call last traded $1.00 on 07/31 (now $0.15/$3.10) — try a limit near $1.00.
