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. 102 contracts (avg 306 vol/day, 102 traded recently)

VMC averages only 306 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 11-20 call last traded $24.80 on 07/16 (now $14.40/$16.20) — try a limit near $15.30. Also watch the $300.00 11-20 call last traded $17.70 on 07/15 (now $10.80/$12.20) — try a limit near $11.50; the $310.00 02-19 call last traded $20.96 on 07/09 (now $12.40/$16.20) — try a limit near $14.30. Most tradeable put: the $280.00 11-20 put last traded $16.25 on 07/17 (now $20.30/$23.90) — try a limit near $20.30.
