// WHAT ARGUS MONITORS

Two filing types. Read automatically.

The Argus SEC-EDGAR agent reads these filings for the tickers you hold and ask about.

FORM 4, INSIDER TRANSACTIONS

Executive and director trades

Required within 2 business days of any insider transaction. Argus lists each filing with the insider, their role, and the dates, and flags clusters: several insiders at the same company filing within the same week.

FORM 8-K, MATERIAL EVENTS

News the company must disclose

Companies file an 8-K within four business days of a material event: an acquisition, an executive departure, a guidance change, a restatement. The SEC-EDGAR agent reads recent 8-Ks for your tickers and flags the ones that change the thesis.


// SIGNAL LOGIC

Not every filing is a signal.

Argus distinguishes meaningful activity from noise.

CLUSTER WEIGHTING

Multiple insiders matter more

A single insider buy is interesting. Three insider buys within 30 days, across different roles, is a materially stronger signal. Argus weights cluster activity significantly higher than single-transaction filings.

CONTEXT ADJUSTMENT

Options exercises filtered out

Many Form 4 filings are routine options exercises or 10b5-1 plan transactions with no informational content. Argus identifies and down-weights these, so the alerts you receive represent genuine discretionary activity, not scheduled compensation events.

RELATIVE SIZING

Size relative to their history

A $50,000 purchase from a director who has never bought open-market shares is more significant than a $500,000 routine buy from one who does it every quarter. Argus evaluates each transaction in the context of that insider's historical filing pattern.
