Apple started trading mini options a little while back, they're on blocks of 10 shares.


Have you traded the minis? I just looked after reading MichaelApproved's comment and the quotes I saw for the minis were way outside the standard contracts.


Well they're not usually "way outside" but yes, they are usually more expensive. Also, most brokers add a per-contract fee so that also adds to your cost basis.

If you're looking right now, it's possibly because AH trading is much more volatile.
