Your screenshot is showing an option that is priced in penny increments (not $0.05 increments as I was assuming as the OP did not specify the underlying or the exchanges he was getting quotes from). The reason you have no bids and are showing no bid size is that there are $0.01 asks. It's impossible to add liquidity to the order book with a bid as long as there are asks of $0.01 as a limit to buy at $0.01 would be immediately matched (remove liquidity) and not go on the order book unless you were using some sort of ECN that allowed for sub-penny pricing. In any case, your screenshot is showing a different scenario than what I had in mind.
You really think he's talking about an option with a 1 cent ask? Really? Nah, cant be , no one would think that .
The option was the Nov call with a strike of 62 in the Norwegian company Storebrand. I payed 5 NOK. for it. Then there was no bid for about 2 weeks but also no real movement in the underlying. Yesterday Storebrand went up by almost 4% so now the bid is back. I just felt I had to ask if this is normal behaviour in options since I've never encountered it before even though I've traded options for several years. And the fact that the only strikes to lose the bid was the two strikes with options bought seemed fishy to me as well but maybe I'm naive thinking market makers should be expected to make markets in the options they're selling.. Anyway, I didn't bet the farm or anything on this position, just hate being hustled
