    How each tool works

    Three tools, and how to use each one

    Insider buys, filtered

    1. 1We read each new SEC Form 4, the filing where a company insider reports a trade.
    2. 2We keep buys where the insider used their own money. We drop buys the filing marks as pre-planned, routine repeat buyers, and companies worth under $50 million or over $2 billion.
    3. 3Each filing that passes becomes a card: who bought, how many shares, and the date filed.

    Free: a sample of cards for filings a week old or more. Desk and Insider Trading Book readers see new filings the next morning.

    See the free insider cards →

    The Record

    1. 1We take each stock and fund on the board.
    2. 2We count the kinds of public record that touched it in the last 30 days. The kinds are insider trades, company filings, big stakes, earnings and news.
    3. 3The free list shows the counts for the top three names.

    Free: the top three, counts only. Brief opens the top 25 with the filings and stories behind them. Desk opens the whole board.

    The Card
    Every market we cover has a case file: what its gauge measures, every time it fired before and what followed next, its false alarms counted, and the chain of cause behind it (who ships what, through where).
    The Council
    One AI writes the weekly read. Three more from rival labs check it against the cards and the news. They do not vote on prices; they argue about evidence.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is this a newsletter?

    No. The email is how it reaches you; the desk is the product. That desk is World Watch, the Insider Trading and Income books, and the live dashboard for members on the Desk plan.

    Is this financial advice?

    No. World State Trading provides general market commentary for informational purposes only. Every call is system-generated and impersonal, not tailored to any individual portfolio.

    Do you promise returns?

    No. Nobody can, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Every call stays on the record, including the ones that lost.

    What if a trade loses?

    Some will. Each book shows its losers next to its winners on the track record page. Once a call is published, it stays on the record.

    Do you tell me what to buy or how much?

    No. The research is not written for your situation, so there are no position sizes and no entry, stop or target instructions.

    Is my card safe?

    You pay on a checkout page run by Stripe, the payments company. Your card number goes to Stripe and never touches our servers.

    When does billing start?

    Right away. Every plan bills on day one, and you get the full month you paid for. The free tier is the way to look around first.

    Can I buy one book without a plan?

    Yes. The Income Book is $29/mo on its own. The Insider Trading Book is also $29/mo. The World Watch Book is not sold on its own: it comes with the Desk plan. Books do not stack on the Brief plan. A member on the Brief plan who wants Insider Trading or World Watch is better off on the Desk plan, which includes all three.

    Can I cancel anytime?

    Yes. Cancel from your account page at any time. No lock-in, no penalties, no questions asked.

    How is the World Watch Book built?

    Twelve market gauges, each with its own measured history, plus the week's news, read together.

    What's the track record?

    Look at the books, not a single number: each book publishes its own record on the track record page, as it happens.

    When do I get it?

    The free Sunday World Watch setup email lands every Sunday. The Morning Newswatch lands every trading morning before the open. The World Watch Book publishes weekly for members on the Desk plan. The dashboard runs live all session for members on the Desk plan.

    What does the dashboard show on the Desk plan?

    World Watch with the week's news, every book, and market weather. Plus everything in the Brief plan.

    How do I get help?

    Email support@worldstatetrading.com and we respond within 24 hours on trading days.

    The track record

    Winners and losers are shown together. Most figures are tested on past filings, before launch. Live trades are counted on their own.

    The Insider Trading book. Tested on past filings, before launch: 36 closed trades · 69.4% finished higher · 11 finished flat or lower · median +9.1%. 56 more live positions are still open.

    The stocks the World Watch Book said to watch: +8.6%, median of 12 open positions, priced Nov 3.

    Past results don't promise future ones.

    See full track record

    The desk runs three books, plus a buzz tracker.

    A book is a list of stocks picked by one method, each with its own public record. The Brief plan brings the Income Book and a list of your own stocks. The Desk plan adds the World Watch and Insider Trading books, live. The Income and Insider Trading books can also be bought on their own. Every record below is public, as proof.

    Past results don't promise future ones.
