Historical option prices for this thinly-traded ticker. Live quotes are wide and stale — use where each contract actually traded plus its 30-day range to place a limit order. 83 contracts (avg 425 vol/day, 78 traded recently)

HRB averages only 425 option contracts/day, so quotes are thin and bid/ask spreads run wide. Use the last actually-traded price below to set a limit order rather than chasing the displayed ask. Most tradeable call: the $30.00 08-21 call last traded $13.88 on 07/31 (now $22.80/$24.00) — try a limit near $22.80. Also watch the $45.00 08-21 call last traded $2.91 on 08/07 (now $8.30/$8.90) — try a limit near $8.30; the $50.00 11-20 call last traded $2.63 on 08/07 (now $5.80/$6.60) — try a limit near $5.80. Most tradeable put: the $55.00 01-15 put last traded $15.50 on 07/07 (now $4.90/$6.70) — try a limit near $5.80.
