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. 77 contracts (avg 481 vol/day, 76 traded recently)

HRB averages only 481 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 $40.00 08-21 call last traded $4.05 on 07/31 (now $6.10/$6.60) — try a limit near $6.10. Also watch the $40.00 09-18 call last traded $4.60 on 07/31 (now $6.40/$7.20) — try a limit near $6.40; the $45.00 09-18 call last traded $2.40 on 07/31 (now $3.00/$3.50) — try a limit near $3.00. Most tradeable put: the $45.00 01-15 put last traded $5.26 on 07/30 (now $4.30/$5.20) — try a limit near $4.75.
