Today the VIX went out at 25.12. The nov.21 calls went out at an ask of 2.95. That makes no sense to me. Shouldn't it have been 4.12 intrinsic value plus time? At least 5.50 or more. Didn't buy any because it didn't look right. Anyone know why that would be?

They are European Options, not American options.

European Options can only be exercised on the day of expiration.

American options can be exercised at any time.
