🧠 Smart Money Tracker

Smart money refers to capital managed by institutional investors, corporate insiders, and other market participants who have demonstrated consistent edge — hedge funds, congressional members, C-suite executives, and large block traders. The term reflects the idea that these participants have information access, resources, or analytical capability that gives them a consistent edge over retail investors.

Smart money leaves a legal footprint in public regulatory filings. Congressional trades are disclosed under the STOCK Act within 45 days. Corporate insider trades are filed on SEC Form 4 within 2 business days. Institutional holdings appear in quarterly 13F filings. Dark pool trades are reported to FINRA post-execution. Flow Antenna aggregates all of these public data sources and refreshes them every 15 minutes.

A convergence signal fires when two or more independent data sources — for example, a congressional trade and an unusual options sweep — point at the same ticker in the same 7-day window. Because these sources are independent of each other, their agreement significantly increases the probability of a major move. Triple-source convergence (three sources in one week) is our highest-conviction pattern.

Flow Antenna refreshes all signal sources every 15 minutes during market hours. Congressional and insider filings update as EDGAR publishes new submissions, typically within minutes of filing. Options flow and dark pool prints update from live exchange data continuously during trading hours.
