This endpoint is applicable only to stocks. For ETFs and mutual funds, insider transactions do not exist in this model, so the endpoint returns an empty result:
"result": {
"total_count": 0,
"items_count": 0,
"items": []
}This is expected behavior, as insider ownership and insider trading disclosures apply only to operating companies (stocks).
When to Use This Endpoint
- Display recent insider activity on equity profile pages.
- Analyze insider behavior as a qualitative signal (buying, selling, gifts).
- Support governance and ownership transparency features.
- Complement aggregated insider metrics from v1/holders/general.

User-defined identifier for the task (max 255 characters).

- position_direct may be null when the filing reports a transaction but not an updated position.
- Dates reflect filing/reporting timelines, not trade execution timestamps.
