About TradeWatcher
TradeWatcher focuses on clarity and speed: surfacing high-signal events so you can act with confidence. A key part of that signal is managers’ transactions — when executives or board members buy or sell their own company’s stock.
Using Managers’ Transactions to Spot Buys
Insider buying, when viewed in context, can highlight asymmetric opportunities.
Managers (officers, directors, significant owners) must report their trades. Clusters of meaningful open-market purchases — especially after drawdowns — can signal conviction and valuation awareness from those closest to the business.
- Look for clusters: multiple insiders buying within a short window, or repeated buys by the same manager.
- Focus on size and type: larger, open-market buys often carry more weight than options exercises.
- Add context: recent price action, fundamentals, and catalysts matter. Insider activity is a signal, not a standalone strategy.
