No covered call setups found

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. 56 contracts (avg 427 vol/day, 45 traded recently)

NI averages only 427 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 $25.00 01-15 call last traded $23.15 on 06/30 (now $17.50/$22.40) — try a limit near $19.95. Also watch the $35.00 11-20 call last traded $11.72 on 07/23 (now $8.10/$12.50) — try a limit near $10.30; the $50.00 11-20 call last traded $0.72 on 07/29 (now $0.45/$0.70) — try a limit near $0.57. Most tradeable put: the $50.00 01-15 put last traded $3.45 on 06/29 (now $5.60/$6.40) — try a limit near $5.60.
