politician_recent_trades
Pack: politician-trades · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/politician-trades/mcp
PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for “what stocks is Congress buying/selling right now”. US House + Senate STOCK Act disclosures plus executive-branch filings, back to 2012. Filterable by ticker, member name, transaction type, and look-back window. Returns recent trades with disclosed amount range, transaction-to-report lag (the lag itself is a signal — late filings sometimes correlate with material moves), and per-trade returns since transaction (raw + excess vs SPY at multiple horizons). Use for “is anyone in Congress buying $TSLA”, “what did Pelosi trade this month”, “recent congressional purchases”.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
ticker | string | no | Filter to one ticker (case-insensitive, e.g. “TSLA”). When set, the cheapest path is taken (per-ticker file). |
member | string | no | Filter by representative — full name, last name, or canonical filer id. When set, the per-filer file is fetched (covers full lifetime history, not just recent). |
transaction | string | no | Filter to transaction type, “purchase” or “sale” (substring-matched against the full type label). |
days | number | no | Look-back window in days. Default 30. Can go back to 2012. |
limit | number | no | Max trades to return. Default 50, max 500. |
