Form 4

SEC filing required when insiders (officers, directors, beneficial owners of 10%+ of any class) buy or sell their company's stock. Must be filed within two business days of the trade and appears publicly on SEC EDGAR the same day. Reading Form 4 patterns is informative but rarely conclusive — most filings record routine compensation events (option exercises, scheduled 10b5-1 sales, RSU vesting) rather than active conviction. Oxford Ledge surfaces only trades crossing 1% of float as material; smaller activity is filtered as noise. Browse the source on SEC EDGAR. The data behind insider net-flow and clustering signals — observation only, never a trading recommendation.
