US insider transactions read directly from SEC Form 3, 4 and 5 filings by ORTEX, typically within minutes of the filing hitting EDGAR. Each row is one reported transaction line: the issuer, the insider (with their stable SEC CIK and their role - director, officer with title, 10% owner), the SEC transaction code, shares, price and computed USD value, post-transaction holdings, direct/indirect ownership, whether the filing declares a 10b5-1 trading plan, and a link to the filing on sec.gov.
Available Data Points:
- Company / Exchange / Ticker: The issuer of the security.
- Filed date / Transaction date: When the form was filed and when the trade happened.
- Form type: 3 (initial ownership), 4 (changes), 5 (annual), and amendments (/A).
- Insider name / CIK: The reporting person and their stable SEC identifier - the same CIK identifies them across every company they file at.
- Roles: Director, officer (with title) and 10%-owner flags.
- Transaction code: The SEC code - P (open-market purchase), S (sale), A (award), M (option exercise), F (tax withholding), G (gift), and the rest of the Form 4 vocabulary.
- Shares / Price / Value: The transaction line, with value = shares × price.
- Shares owned after: Post-transaction beneficial holdings.
- 10b5-1 plan: Whether the filing declares the trade was made under a plan.
- SEC URL: The filing's index page on sec.gov.
