Compound Interesting

Composite signal for a ticker

Everything the platform knows about one ticker in a single record: the cross-signal consensus, each contributing dimension with its direction and provenance, and risk flags. Start here for any question about a specific company.

Composite signal for a demo ticker (no key required)

A single fixed demo ticker, callable without an API key, so the data shape can be inspected before signing up. Returns only the demo ticker regardless of input. For real tickers use get_composite, which requires a free key.

Source documents behind a ticker's signals

The primary documents a ticker's signals were derived from — insider Form 4s, Congressional disclosures, institutional holdings and macro series, each with the filing it came from. Use this to cite a claim rather than assert it. Paid keys only, and slower than the other tools because it is computed on demand.

House rating for a ticker

The platform's own buy/hold/sell rating for a ticker, with the reasoning behind it. A judgement about the stock, not a recommendation to any reader.

Cross-signal consensus for one ticker

Whether the independent actors this platform tracks — insiders, Congress, institutions, the model — agree on one ticker, with the per-dimension breakdown that produced the verdict.

Tickers ranked by consensus strength

The names where independent actors agree most strongly, ranked. Use this to find candidates rather than to check one you already have in mind.

Screen the universe

Filter the whole equity universe and return matching tickers with their scores. The bulk discovery tool: use it for questions of the form 'which companies have X'. To rank by cross-signal agreement instead, use rank_consensus.

Recent insider trades

Corporate insider buys and sells from SEC filings, newest first, each linked to the filing it came from.

Recent Congressional trades

Disclosed House and Senate trades, newest first, each linked to its disclosure. Committee overlap is reported as oversight, never as an accusation.

Institutional and derivative positioning

How large holders are positioned, newest first. Net figures can reflect hedges and cannot be read as a directional view on their own.

How big a move is normal for this ticker

The historical distribution of 5-day and 1-month returns for a ticker, sampled over the last 5 years: mean, standard deviation, percentiles, a histogram, and the worst drawdowns with their dates. Use it to say whether a move is unusual FOR THIS NAME rather than in the abstract. Every number is a fraction: 0.0821 means 8.21%.

Overnight positioning on US names (24/7 perps)

Funding rate and open interest for the ~51 US single names listed on a 24/7 perpetual futures venue, ranked by notional. This is the ONLY source here that moves outside US market hours, so it is what to check overnight and at weekends. High positive funding means longs are paying to hold — crowded, squeeze-fragile. The mark price is a venue mark, NOT the stock price.

Overnight positioning for one ticker

Funding and open interest for a single name on the 24/7 perpetual venue. Most tickers are NOT listed there — only about 51 of ~5,400 — and a 'not listed' answer means no venue coverage, never that positioning is flat or zero.

Find a ticker by name or symbol

Resolve a company name or partial symbol to tickers the platform covers. Use this first when the user names a company rather than a symbol.

Market-level signal

A whole-market gauge rather than a per-company one. 'macro' is the market-regime read, 'energy' the macro energy balance, 'crypto' crypto positioning and funding. Use these for the backdrop a single name is trading against.
