Insider Trades
Learning where the insiders are buying and selling is just as important as building a trading strategy. When the insiders are buying and selling shares of their own companies (or even parallel businesses), you can learn where the money is going.
Take a look at this live tracker from Benzinga that shows you where insider cash is moving, allowing you to make wise decisions for your own portfolio. Remember, this is not the same as copy trading. Insiders don’t intend for you to copy their trades, but you can glean quite a lot of information from their activity.
Attention insiders:Dive deeper into market movements and stay ahead of the curve with Benzinga Pro! From up-to-the-second news to audio squawks and interactive data tools, it's everything you need to supercharge your trading strategy.

Is insider trading legal?
Insider trading is legal so long as the insiders report those trades to the SEC. Illegal securities trading occurs when the insider is violating a fiduciary duty or fails to report their trades.
What are some examples of market manipulation?
Insider trading, pump and dump schemes, front running and wash trades are all examples of market manipulation. Investors who track insider asset movement should think carefully about why these insiders are trading their stocks before moving forward.
