Legally piggyback on insider trades |
When people hear “insider trading,” they think of Congress. |
And sure, Pelosi’s Tempus AI trade and Susie Lee’s arms stock gains are sketchy. |
But here’s what most don’t realize: Congress isn’t the worst offender. |
The real whales are corporate execs who trade on non-public info legally and have to report their trades within days, thanks to an SEC loophole. |
They know exactly when market-moving news is coming: |
A pharma CEO before FDA approval A tech CTO before a product drop A CFO before a blowout quarter
|
When they buy shares? It’s not a hunch. It’s a sure thing. |
Veteran trader Ross Givens has spent years tracking these moves. His strategy — follow the smart money — has delivered gains of up to 1,500% on a single trade. And it hasn’t had a losing year. |
Now Ross is hosting a free live training to show you: |
Where to find these trades before they go public How to identify high-conviction insider moves The 3 rare signals that consistently beat the market
|
|
This is free to attend, but the software does cap attendance. |
And just for signing up, Ross will send you a high-potential trade straight to your inbox.
