Data Methodology & Reference

Why look for insider buying in Penny Stocks?

Micro-cap stocks are often ignored by Wall Street. Insider filings are sometimes the only reliable data source. A significant buy in a penny stock can precede massive percentage gains (Multi-baggers) due to the low market cap.

What is the biggest risk with Penny Stock insiders?

Liquidity. Even if the insider is right, low trading volume can make it hard for you to sell. Always check the "Vol/Avg" column to ensure there is enough liquidity for your position size.

What is the "Float" and why do you list it?

The "Float" is the number of shares available to the public. Low float stocks with insider accumulation are explosive—small buying pressure can send the price up 50%+ in a single day.

How do I distinguish a gem from a scam?

Look for Cash Buys, not compensation. Be wary if insiders are buying small amounts while the company is diluting shares (selling stock to the public) to raise cash. 13Radar highlights Open Market Purchases to help you filter.

Are filings for Penny Stocks delayed?

Sometimes. Stocks on the OTC (Over-The-Counter) market may have different reporting standards. However, we prioritize NASDAQ/NYSE listed micro-caps where Form 4 reporting is strictly enforced within 2 days.

What price range is considered a "Penny Stock" here?

We generally define this category as stocks trading under $5 with a market cap under $300M. These are high-beta, high-risk assets suitable for aggressive traders.
