GET /v1/insider/{ticker}

Parsed insider transactions from SEC Form 4 (and 3/5/144): who traded, their role, the transaction code, share count, price, and whether it was an open-market decision or an automatic, pre-scheduled sale. This is the flagship endpoint — the parsing is the value, not the raw filing.

Read the transaction code. Code P is an open-market purchase — the insider spent their own money, the one trade that carries a view. Sales flagged plan_10b5_1 were scheduled in advance and carry little signal. Don't treat every "insider sale" as bearish.
