After some corporate action, if a stock option becomes non-standard, can I use the non-standard symbol to access the historic trades info before the corporate action occurs? If no, what symbol do I need to use?

If there is a non-standard option symbol it will not have the historical data. This will be a work in progress for the options symbols.

non-standard option symbol is introduced due to corporate actions. When you say no historic data, do you mean no historic data AFTER the date of corporate actions? or BEFORE?
