Where do the trades come from?
From reports the law requires. Company insiders and big investors file with the SEC; members of the House and the Senate file with their chamber; the President, Vice President and cabinet file with the Office of Government Ethics. We read the reports directly: SEC filings are checked every 15 minutes, Congress reports a few times a day, government ethics reports daily.
Why is a trade shown days or weeks after it happened?
That's the reporting deadline, not us. Insiders have two business days to report; members of Congress have up to 45 days. Every trade shows both dates: when it happened and when it was made public.
Who is covered?
Company insiders, big investors, every member of the House and the Senate, and the President, Vice President and cabinet. Reports filed on paper are linked but can't be read, so a few older trades are missing.
Is this investment advice?
No. It shows what people reported and how the stock has moved since, beside the S&P 500. It never tells you to buy or sell, and a past move says nothing about the next one.
How do I cancel Pro?
From your account page, any time. You keep Pro until the end of the month or year you've paid for, and you won't be charged again.
