Legal Insider Trading? Yeah, it's a thing.
CEOs and execs have to file with the SEC when they buy stock in their own company. Those filings are public — and if you know how to read them, they’re pure signal.
The Legal Kind — Not the FBI Kind
When execs, board members, or 10%+ shareholders buy their own company’s stock, they’re legally required to report it to the SEC within 2 business days. That’s a Form 4 filing — and it’s public.
The catch? It’s buried in government databases, hard to parse, and easy to miss unless you know exactly what you’re looking for. That’s where Alpha4 comes in — we do the digging so you don’t have to.
Why It Matters
Executives don’t buy stock for fun — they do it when they know something’s coming. Blowout quarter. M&A news. A new product about to hit. Their money moves before Wall Street catches on ... and Alpha4 flags those trades in real time.
Our system filters out the noise and locks in on the kind of buys that signal something’s up — the kind that have historically outperformed the market. No guesswork. Just proven moves from the people who actually run the company.
And these trades consistently outperform the S&P 500, year after year. We follow the real money moves by insiders with a long-term track record of being profitable, because they know something the rest of us don't. Now, you will too.
Not Every Insider Trade Is Alpha — We Filter the Noise
Anyone can pull Form 4s from the SEC. We built a propriety system that alerts you to the trades that insiders actually believe in.
Executive-Level Buys
We track leadership moves — not random employees. These are the people closest to the company’s future.
Big-Money Purchases
We're not chasing $5K money moves. We look for large open-market purchases that show real conviction.
Cluster Buying
Multiple insiders buying together? That’s an alpha signal right there. We flag coordinated buys across exec teams and boards.
Pattern-Based Scoring
We score trades based on insider behavior — weighting unusually large buys, profit history, and patterns that beat the market.
What Sets Alpha4 Apart
Anyone can pull Form 4s from the SEC. We built a propriety system that alerts you to the trades that insiders actually believe in.
Real-Time Tracking
We scan Form 4 filings the second they hit the SEC.
Most investors find out about insider buys when it’s already too late — after the move’s happened and the alpha’s gone. We built Alpha4 to track SEC filings in real time, so you’re getting the data while it still matters.
You’ll know when execs move serious money — not hours or days later, but while the market is still asleep. This is your early signal, before Wall Street catches on.
Weighted Trade Scoring
Not all insider trades are equal — we rank them.
Some insiders are just collecting shares. Some are making moves that have a track record of blowing up the chart. Alpha4 knows the difference — and ranks every trade using insider behavior patterns and historical profitability.
Larger-than-usual buys, repeat winners, perfect-timed clusters — it all feeds into our scoring engine to surface the trades with the strongest upside potential. We prioritize the trades that insiders bet big on, so you can follow the money.
Clean, Simple Alerts
You don’t need another dashboard — you need signal.
Our alerts hit your inbox every morning before the market opens. No filler. No fluff. Just the info that helps you make real money moves.
We show you who bought, how much they bought, what their past trades have returned, and what our target ROI and sell range looks like. It’s fast, easy to understand, and built to help you trade smarter — because results are the only thing that matter.
Zero Hype. All Alpha.
We’re here to show you the money.
This isn’t about penny stocks, Reddit pumps, or chasing momentum. Alpha4 tracks real insiders (the ones who already know what’s coming) and highlights when they put serious money behind a move.
Every alert is backed by Form 4 filings and real open-market buys. No speculation. No algorithms guessing. Just raw data tied to real dollars — the kind that tends to show up before the headlines do.
Built for the Edge
Made for people who want an unfair advantage.
Wall Street execs already monitor these filings. The difference? You’re not just seeing the data — you’re getting a signal that cuts through it and tells you when to pay attention.
Whether you’re a solo trader or managing a serious portfolio, this is the edge they don’t talk about on CNBC. You’re not just watching the market. You’re watching the people who move it.
