Insiders are individuals that have access to non-public information about a company; they are usually directors, key employees, large shareholders... Their activity (Buy and sell transactions), which is made available to the SEC within few days, is watched and followed by individuals and institutional investors.
A high selling volume made by insiders is considered by many traders to be a bearish sign, while a high buying volume is considered as a bullish sign. Insider selling volume is usually not considered as reliable as insider buying volume, and this is because there are many personal reasons that may force insiders (Key employees, directors...) to sell stock shares.
This object downloads a list of stocks with recent insider buying activity and another list of stocks with recent insider selling activity. Each one of these stocks gets a value of one on the current trading bar and on the "insider_buying" or "insider_selling" field of the "finviz" database, which is automatically created the first time you run this downloader.

This data can be downloaded using Insider Trading Data.
Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
