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. 52 contracts (avg 181 vol/day, 51 traded recently)

ZD averages only 181 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 $30.00 01-15 call last traded $23.60 on 07/06 (now $22.30/$25.60) — try a limit near $23.60. Also watch the $55.00 08-21 call last traded $2.52 on 07/30 (now $1.50/$3.50) — try a limit near $2.50.
