🔧 Input reference

Field	Type	Default	What it does
min_cluster_size	integer	3	Minimum number of DISTINCT insiders that must have bought the same stock inside the rolling window for a cluster to qualify. 3 is the academic-research threshold (Lakonishok-Lee 2…
date_range	string (last_30d, last_60d, last_90d)	"last_30d"	How far back to scan for clustered insider buying. last_30d is the canonical academic-research window — insiders rarely act independently on the same thesis if their decisions are…
min_value_usd	integer	25000	Skip clusters where the total combined dollar value of all insider buys is below this threshold. Filters out trivial token buys (1-2K share Director gifts/exercises). Common thres…
exclude_sells	boolean	true	If true, only return clusters where EVERY insider transaction in the window was a buy (no sells, no exercises, no dispositions mixed in). The is_all_buy=true flag isolates the hig…

💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$0.01	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
Insider cluster record (apify-default-dataset-item)	$0.1	Charged per aggregated cluster returned — one stock with 3+ distinct insider buys inside the lookback window, with all insider names, roles…

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.1 = $10.00 plus the start fee.
