## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability 2s-io-c68d1cc5
```

Example prompt: Pull the last 8 SEC Form 4 insider trades for NVDA — I want to see who bought or sold, their role, the transaction type, share count, price, and their post-trade balance.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, parsed insider transaction data from official SEC Form 4 filings — especially when you want per-trade detail (price, shares, code, balance) rather than just filing metadata. Prefer over generic SEC filing endpoints when the specific use case is insider buying/selling activity for a known US-listed ticker. Better than scraping SEC.gov directly because it handles XML parsing and normalization automatically.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized ticker symbol returns an error or empty result
- Limit outside 1-10 range is rejected by schema validation
- Ticker with no recent Form 4 filings returns empty array
- SEC EDGAR upstream unavailability causes timeout or 502 error
- Tickers for non-US or OTC-only companies may not resolve

## How this service works

Recent SEC Form 4 insider transactions for a US public company by ticker. Returns parsed transactions: insider name + relationship (director, officer/title, 10%+ owner), transaction date, SEC code (P=purchase, S=sale, A=grant, D=disposition, M=exercise, F=tax-withholding, G=gift), security title, shares, price/share, total USD value, post-transaction balance, direct vs indirect ownership. Each filing pulled separately and parsed from raw XML — bounded by limit (1-10, default 5). Backed by SEC.gov; underlying Form 4 filings are public records. For insider trades + filings + fundamentals merged by ticker in one call, see /api/finance/company-profile.

## Output

Returns a list of parsed Form 4 insider transactions, each containing: insider full name, relationship to the company (e.g. director, CEO, 10%+ owner), transaction date, SEC transaction code (P=purchase, S=sale, A=grant, D=disposition, M=exercise, F=tax-withholding, G=gift), security title, number of shares, price per share, total USD value of the transaction, post-transaction share balance, and whether the ownership is direct or indirect. One object per individual Form 4 filing, up to the requested limit.
