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. 104 contracts (avg 128 vol/day, 104 traded recently)

VSEC averages only 128 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 $240.00 09-18 call last traded $3.63 on 07/29 (now $6.90/$10.00) — try a limit near $6.90. Also watch the $240.00 08-21 call last traded $1.67 on 07/29 (now $1.80/$4.90) — try a limit near $1.80. Most tradeable put: the $200.00 10-16 put last traded $20.50 on 07/08 (now $12.80/$16.70) — try a limit near $14.75.
