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. 48 contracts (avg 33 vol/day, 47 traded recently)

STE averages only 33 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 put: the $195.00 09-18 put last traded $1.99 on 07/28 (now $0.55/$1.75) — try a limit near $1.15.
