How does it work

Congress Trades

Under the STOCK Act of 2012, members and staff of Congress are required to report their stock trades within 45 days of the trade. Their trade information is published on certain websites, such as the House Clerk and Senate eFD. We have developed an event-driven system that retrieves trade information from the House Clerk and Senate websites. Upon the discovery of a new trade, we will extract, format and promptly send you an email notification. Trade Insight System data flow

Insider Trades

Similarly, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires senior executives, directors, and 10%+ shareholders (“insiders”) to report their transactions in the company's stock in 2 business days under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
