Plain-English explainers about insider filings, signals, and how to read what the product shows you.
What is The Insiders Post?
The Insiders Post is a research tool that surfaces every SEC Form 4 filing by reporting owners — officers, directors, and 10% beneficial owners of U.S. public companies. Every transaction, every filing context, every signal. No recommendations, no predictions — just the filings, made readable.

What this is not
The Insiders Post is a research tool. It describes filing characteristics; it does not predict future price movement, and it does not constitute financial advice. Filing-derived signals describe characteristics of the filing only. Win rates, forward returns, benchmark-adjusted returns, and any equivalent performance metric are out of scope for this product. Always verify against the original SEC filing before drawing conclusions.

What these explainers cover and how to use themWhat is The Insiders Post?
A research tool that surfaces every SEC Form 4 filing by reporting owners — officers, directors, and 10% beneficial owners of US public companies. Every transaction, every filing context, every signal. No recommendations, no predictions — just the filings, made readable.
Who is this content for?
Anyone who wants to understand what corporate insiders are actually doing — retail investors doing their own due diligence, journalists verifying claims, compliance and legal teams reviewing filings, and researchers building datasets. We assume basic familiarity with the SEC but explain everything else.
How current is this content?
Explainers describe a stable methodology, so they don't change often. Where we document a specific number (active insiders, signals fired in a window, processing latency), that number is refreshed on the same schedule as the underlying data — see the methodology note at the bottom of each article.
Is any of this financial advice?
No. The Insiders Post describes SEC Form 4 filings as filed. Nothing on this site is a recommendation to buy or sell any security, a prediction of future price movement, or a substitute for professional financial advice. Filing-derived signals describe characteristics of the filing only and do not imply future performance. Always verify against the original SEC filing before drawing conclusions.
How should I cite one of these articles?
Cite the article slug (for example /learn/what-is-sec-form-4), the publication date at the top of the article, and the methodology version noted at the bottom. The data the article references may have been updated since publication; the article itself does not change without a new commit.
