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. 127 contracts (avg 231 vol/day, 127 traded recently)

VMC averages only 231 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 $310.00 02-19 call last traded $13.90 on 07/23 (now $15.20/$17.40) — try a limit near $15.20. Also watch the $280.00 08-21 call last traded $15.00 on 07/29 (now $9.10/$11.10) — try a limit near $10.10; the $290.00 09-18 call last traded $4.75 on 07/31 (now $8.30/$10.40) — try a limit near $8.30.
