SEC Form 4 Insider Trading Tracker

Parses SEC Form 4 filings to expose actual insider transactions: CEO/CFO/Director open-market buys & sells, options exercises, awards. Returns ticker, insider name, role, transaction code, shares, price, USD value. Strong quant signal source.

Input Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`countFromFeed`	integer	`50`	How many of the most recent Form 4 filings to ingest and parse.
`tickers`	array	`[]`	Only include trades for these issuer tickers. Empty = all.
`onlyBuys`	boolean	`false`	If true, drop dispositions (sales, gifts, tax payments).
`minValueUsd`	integer	`0`	Drop transactions below this USD value. 0 = no filter.
`alertMinValueUsd`	integer	`0`	Telegram alert when any returned trade ≥ this USD value. 0 = disabled.
`contactEmail`	string	`research@example.com`	SEC requires an identifying User-Agent with a contact email.
`telegramBotToken`	string	`—`	Telegram bot token.
`telegramChatId`	string	``	Telegram chat ID to send alerts to (get it from @userinfobot)

Why this exists

When a CEO buys $5M of their own stock on the open market, the stock tends to outperform over the next 12 months. This pattern — and dozens of others — drive a whole class of quant strategies.

The data is free at SEC EDGAR — but parsing it requires:

Watching the Form 4 atom feed
For each filing, fetching and parsing the underlying ownership XML
Decoding transaction codes (P/S/A/M/F/G/D/C/X)

This actor automates the whole pipeline and returns one clean row per transaction.

What you get per row

Field	Example	Notes
`issuer_ticker`	`AVR`
`issuer_name`	`Anteris Technologies Global Corp.`
`insider_name`	`McDonnell Matthew`
`is_director`	`false`
`is_officer`	`true`
`officer_title`	`Chief Financial Officer`
`is_ten_percent_owner`	`false`
`txn_date`	`2026-06-05`	transaction date
`txn_code`	`P`	SEC transaction code
`txn_meaning`	`Open-market purchase`	decoded
`acquired_or_disposed`	`A`	A = acquired, D = disposed
`shares`	`5,000`
`price_usd`	`2.45`
`value_usd`	`12,250.00`	shares × price
`post_txn_shares`	`45,200`	total holdings after txn
`filing_url`	`https://www.sec.gov/Archives/...`

SEC Transaction Codes (decoded)

Code	Meaning
P	Open-market purchase ← strong bullish signal
S	Open-market sale
A	Grant / award (compensation)
M	Option exercise → common stock
F	Tax-withholding payment
G	Gift
D	Disposition to issuer
C	Conversion of derivative
X	Exercise of in-the-money derivative

The onlyBuys filter keeps just A (acquisitions) — useful for filtering noise.

Use cases
