[ConservativeOptionStrategies] Re: MRK May 31 puts

 

Thanks for this David. My broker won't know. I'll probably call CBOE and try to get someone on the phone who can tell me. I think you are correct in your assessment, for sure very illiquid and behaving strange.

When I've had situation's like this before I generally trade out of them...reason they become illiquid to trade. I would call your broker for advice of what to do with these options. If they don't know ...CHANGE brokers, depending on your experience level either ThinkorSwim or Interactive Brokers.
