๐ฎ Prediction Engine โ Who Will Trade Next?
Early-stage bills (committee / introduced) ร committee members ร past sector trading ร greediness score
The Premise
Assume all committee members are self-interested. Don't wait for disclosed trades. Score the opportunity to profit before disclosure.
Opportunity Score
Voting power ร stock move potential ร room size. Scores range 1โ10,000. โฅ1,000 = critical, โฅ100 = elevated. Use โก Small-Cap Only to find needle-movers.
Consortium Signal
๐ด 5+ politicians in the room = insider consortium alert. ๐ 3+ = elevated. These people all profit if the bill passes.

๐ฅ Hot Bills โ Follow the Butter
Bills ranked by total committee insider financial motivation โ click any row for full analysis
The Core Signal
Forget who will trade next. Ask: which bills have enough butter on them that the committee insiders NEED them to pass? Past trades are validation โ not the prediction.
Total Butter
Sum of all committee members' estimated gains if the bill passes. $100K+ = elevated. $1M+ = critical. The more butter, the more motivated they are to advance it.
โก Needle Movers
Small-cap tickers where the bill could move the stock 10โ60%. When committee members hold these, the motivation is extreme. Filter for needle movers to find the sharpest signals.

๐๏ธ ConTrack
Congress Corruption Prediction Engine โ built for transparency
What is ConTrack?
ConTrack is a transparency tool that cross-references congressional stock trades with pending legislation to identify potential conflicts of interest. It does not prove corruption โ it surfaces patterns worth examining.
Under the STOCK Act (2012), members of Congress must publicly disclose stock trades within 45 days. ConTrack collects those disclosures, scores politicians by their trading behavior, and flags situations where a heavily-trading politician is also voting on legislation that financially benefits the companies they hold.
How It Works โ The Pipeline
1
Collect Trade Disclosures
956 recent trades pulled from the QuiverQuant free API (STOCK Act data). Covers House + Senate members, April 2025 โ present. Matched to politicians via BioGuide ID for 100% accuracy.
2
Score Politician Greediness (0โ100)
Each politician with trade activity gets a score: trade frequency 40% + total disclosed volume 40% + disclosure delay 20%. Filing close to the 45-day limit scores higher than prompt disclosure.
3
Analyze Bill Impact
5,000 bills from the 119th Congress are scanned for sector keywords (energy, finance, healthcare, defense, technology, etc.) and mapped to publicly traded companies in those sectors. Each bill gets an impact level: HIGH (3+ keywords), MEDIUM (2), LOW (1).
4
Generate the Reading List
Cross-reference: which greedy politicians have recently traded stocks in sectors affected by pending legislation? 496 flagged combinations ranked by priority score = greediness 40% + bill impact 40% + trade recency 20%.
What Each Tab Shows
๐ Reading List
The main output. 496 flagged politicianโbill pairs where a high-scoring trader has a financial stake in a bill's outcome. Sorted by priority score (highest = most suspicious). Click any row to open the full bill report, which shows which stocks are affected and which politicians have traded them.
๐ค Politicians
50 scored politicians ranked by greediness. Only politicians with recent trade activity appear. Scores factor in trading frequency, disclosed dollar volume, and how late they filed their STOCK Act disclosures.
๐ Trades
956 individual stock trades filed under the STOCK Act. Filter by type (buy/sell), ticker, or politician name. Amount ranges are legally mandated bands โ $1Kโ$15K, $15Kโ$50K, $50Kโ$100K, $100Kโ$250K, $250Kโ$500K, etc. Exact amounts are not disclosed by law.

Why "No HIGH Impact" in Reading List?
The reading list is generated by cross-referencing greedy politicians' actual traded tickers with bill impacts. If their trades (MSFT, AAPL, etc.) don't appear in HIGH impact bills (energy, finance sector bills), they won't show HIGH โ even if they're in the top greediness ranking. Click bills directly to find the overlaps.
