    Do you mean what strikes are listed by exchange? Yes, strike 85 for Jul4 14 FAS is minimum now.

    "Should not the offer price goes to 0.05 or this option?"

    I am not sure that I understand :confused:
    Do you mean whether price of (probably put) option - strike 85, 26 days to expiration, FAS - should go to 0.05? Maybe price will go there, maybe not. We will see... Kind of strange question. What is your experience trading options?

    the 85 put is at ~40cents time value for a month, that looks normal.
     
  5. Would not the option 85 price extend to lower price to offer price 0.05? 83 82 81 having 25cents 10cents 5cents? Where are those lower price levels?

    Those strikes are just not listed by exchange.
    If there is no car, you can not trade any car... If you are not happy with it, you should find something else to trade :)
     
  7. how do the exchange determine how many strikeprices be in the market? Other securities have strikeprices with offer all the way to 0.02
     
  8. Dunno about stocks, but with other underlying assets, you can ask the exchange to list more strikes...
