When both metrics show significant deviation (AR > 2.5% and volume ratio > 3.0) before corporate announcements, the likelihood of information leakage increases substantially."},{"question":"How far back should data analysis look to effectively detect insider trading?","answer":"Most insider trading detection systems examine a window of 10-30 days before corporate announcements or significant market events. Research shows that information leakage typically occurs within two weeks of major news, with increased activity 3-5 days before public disclosure."},{"question":"Can machine learning really improve insider trading detection?","answer":"Yes, machine learning significantly enhances detection capabilities by identifying subtle patterns across multiple variables simultaneously. ML models can detect complex relationships between trading timing, volume, price movements, and option activity that traditional statistical methods might miss."},{"question":"What role does options trading play in insider trading detection?","answer":"Options trading provides valuable signals for insider trading detection because derivatives offer leverage and potential anonymity. Unusual spikes in call option purchases before positive announcements or put options before negative news often indicate information asymmetry and warrant investigation."},{"question":"Are there legitimate reasons for trading patterns that mimic insider trading?","answer":"Yes, several legitimate factors can create patterns similar to insider trading signals: sector-wide news affecting multiple companies, algorithmic trading strategies, or skilled analysts making accurate predictions.
