The US Equity Options Trade and Quote Daily Bar dataset provides the time, price, and size of daily open, high, low, and close for bid/ask/trade. For CBOE proprietary index options, indicative bid and ask data is provided. Additionally, Curb session close bid and ask details are available for SPX, VIX, and XSP options.
