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. 83 contracts (avg 145 vol/day, 49 traded recently)

TDS averages only 145 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 $17.50 12-18 call last traded $17.36 on 07/20 (now $18.50/$19.30) — try a limit near $18.50. Also watch the $30.00 12-18 call last traded $8.01 on 07/02 (now $7.10/$8.00) — try a limit near $7.55; the $17.50 01-21 call last traded $18.04 on 07/20 (now $17.50/$22.00) — try a limit near $18.04. Most tradeable put: the $30.00 11-20 put last traded $1.30 on 07/15 (now $0.95/$1.25) — try a limit near $1.10.
