Form 4 is a filing with the SEC that discloses any transactions that insiders of a company perform.

And if you are not sure what the SEC or insiders means, feel free to watch my previous videos.

And here is an example.

Being an insider of a company comes with additional responsibilities. Such as constant paperwork when you buy or sell shares of your own company.

Every time and insider buys or sells shares of his or her own company, Form 4 must be filed with the SEC within 2 business days from the end of the day of the transaction. Which basically discloses which type of transaction happened, and how many shares were bought or sold.

The reason why the SEC keeps insiders close is to prevent insider trading. Which is illegal since it creates disadvantages for the regular stock market participants.

You can find insider transactions by looking at Form 4 which you can find on EDGAR database of the SEC website.

And as a general rule, insider buying is considered to be a good sign, while insider selling is bad.
