Insider + Institutional Buying
Companies where both corporate insiders and institutional investors are actively buying shares. This convergence of buying from two independent groups of well-informed investors is derived from SEC Form 4 and 13F filings.
Why This Matters
When two independent groups of well-informed investors — corporate insiders with operational knowledge and institutional investors with analytical resources — simultaneously increase their positions, it suggests both see value at current price levels. These groups have different information advantages, making their agreement particularly notable.

Why Track Insider and Institutional Buying Together?
Insider buying (Form 4) and institutional accumulation (13F) are independently valuable signals. When they align, it suggests that both people with inside knowledge of a company and professional investors managing large portfolios see value at current prices. This page shows convergence signals where both groups are actively buying.
Insider trading data from SEC EDGAR Form 4 filings. Institutional holdings from quarterly 13F filings. Financial fundamentals from 10-K and 10-Q filings. All data is public domain and does not constitute investment advice.
Signal Score Methodology
Each signal receives a score from 0 to 100 based on the following components. Only signals scoring 40 or above are shown. Scores are computed from public SEC filing data and are for informational purposes only.
Number of unique insiders purchasing shares (Form 4). More buyers = higher score.
Net new institutional buyers from 13F filings. More net buyers = higher score.
Revenue growth (YoY) and profit margin from 10-K/10-Q filings.
Minimum display threshold: 40/100. Data sources: SEC Form 4 (insider trades), 13F (institutional holdings), 10-K/10-Q (fundamentals). All data is public domain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are smart money signals?
Smart money signals are cross-referencing indicators that combine multiple SEC filing data sources — insider trading (Form 4), institutional holdings (13F), and financial fundamentals (10-K/10-Q) — to identify stocks where well-informed investors are acting with conviction. When insiders, institutions, and financial metrics all point in the same direction, it may indicate meaningful information about a company's prospects.
How are smart money signals calculated?
Signals are computed by combining three independent data sources from SEC EDGAR: (1) insider buying/selling from Form 4 filings (last 30 days), (2) institutional ownership changes from 13F filings (quarterly), and (3) fundamental metrics from 10-K/10-Q filings (revenue growth, profit margins). Each signal type has a score from 0-100 based on the strength and alignment of these factors.
How often are smart money signals updated?
The underlying data updates at different frequencies: insider trading data (Form 4) is typically filed within 2 business days of a transaction, institutional holdings (13F) are filed quarterly within 45 days of quarter end, and financial fundamentals update with each quarterly earnings filing. Signal calculations run regularly to incorporate the latest available data.
What does a convergence signal mean?
A convergence signal indicates that corporate insiders are buying shares, institutional investors are increasing their positions, and the company's financial fundamentals are improving — all at the same time. This triple-positive alignment from three independent sources suggests broad agreement among well-informed parties that the stock offers value.
Should I buy stocks based on smart money signals?
No. Smart money signals are informational tools, not investment recommendations. While they highlight interesting patterns in SEC filing data, they should be one of many inputs in your research process. Insider selling can have innocent explanations, institutional moves may lag reality by 45+ days, and past patterns do not predict future returns. Always do your own research before making investment decisions.
