Insider filters

Every filter for insider trade rules, with examples.

Insider rules send an alert when a company insider reports a trade. See Insider trades for what the alert shows.

Filter What it does Example
Symbol filter Only these companies, or the companies in a watchlist. AAPL, NVDA
Transaction type Buy, Sell or Any. Any includes shares granted by the company, option exercises, shares withheld for taxes and gifts. Buy
Min value ($) Only trades worth at least this many dollars in total. 250000 for $250K or more
Relationship (Pro) Only insiders of this kind: Director, Officer, 10% owner or Other. Director
Title (Pro) Only officers with this title: CEO, CFO, COO, President, Chairman, VP or Other. CEO

Good to know

  • Min value uses the total of all matching trades in the filing, the same amount the alert shows. Enter a plain number of dollars.
  • Trades with no price, such as grants and gifts, have no dollar value, so they never pass a Min value filter.
  • An insider can have several relationships at once, for example a CEO who is also a director. Relationship matches if any of them fits.
  • Title only matches when the filing states the officer's title.

Example rules

  • CEO and CFO buys over $100K: Transaction type Buy, Min value 100000, Title CEO. Create a second rule for CFO.
  • Any big insider sale in my portfolio: Watchlist My portfolio, Transaction type Sell, Min value 1000000.
