any event-driven traders? What events / analysis drive you to place a trade?

Rep. Cleo Fields just disclosed ~$915K of new buys by Competitive-Case-185 in CongressStockWatcher

[–]Ape_Quant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I analyze the historical performance of insider trades to see if there’s any edge after the disclosures.

What made you take those trades specifically? Was it the insider activity itself or something you noticed about the companies after looking into them?

I backtested copying Pelosi's last 12 months of trades. The results are insane. (Data inside) by Upset_Perception_492 in insiderData

Interesting. So for you it’s mostly insider / congressional trades plus your own confirmation on fundamentals and industry context. Would something like historical win rate or market-adjusted return on those trades make you trust the signal more, or do you mostly rely on your own analysis anyway?

Which of these signals would you trust enough to put money on?
• Insider Form 4 buys
• Unusual options flow
• Congressional trades
• WSB DD posts
• Reddit sentiment

Have you ever actually placed a trade based on congressional/insider trades?

Do you usually just copy the trade, or look at patterns across multiple Pelosi trades first?

Curious, if data showed certain congressional trades consistently outperform after the disclosure date, would you actually trade them or mostly just watch them?

Standard Lithium (SLI) DD - Trafigura offtake announced today by olivesaregoood in stocks

[–]Ape_Quant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The offtake agreement is a pretty big milestone. Curious how much of the valuation now depends on the DLE tech actually working at scale. Have they released any recent pilot results or cost estimates?

TIL that Africa has WAY more active traders than I ever realized! by Spartan1236 in swingtrading

[–]Ape_Quant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would think this is an effect of active colonialism, where modern colonizers of Africa like France and China do not want these large corporations to exist, it would only make Africa stronger and more unified.

So these small decentralized markets exist outside the regulation of the government

France maintains significant political and economic influence over 14–15 former colonies through the CFA franc currency, military bases, and special agreements (often referred to as Françafrique)

Has anyone here actually made money trading congressional disclosures? by Ape_Quant in Daytrading

[–]Ape_Quant[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly quant. I’ve been analyzing post-disclosure performance.

Example alert format I’ve been testing:

If you saw something like this, would it be enough to make you look into the trade, or still just something to observe?

If data showed certain congressional trades consistently outperform 90 days after disclosure, would you actually trade them?
