Capitol Trades Review, Pricing, and Features
Capitol Trades is a free public web app from 2iQ Research for tracking U.S. politician trading disclosures under the STOCK Act. It is strongest for investors, journalists, and researchers who want to filter congressional trades by politician, issuer, chamber, party, committee, state, asset type, transaction type, sector, size range, and filing details, but disclosure timing can lag trades and reported amounts are ranges rather than exact fills.
Best for
- Investors and journalists tracking U.S. politician trade disclosures by member, issuer, state, party, chamber, committee, transaction type, and size range.
- Users researching congressional trading, Pelosi trades, STOCK Act, politician portfolio, and issuer-specific political-trade queries.
- Research workflows where political transaction disclosures are a signal to investigate conflicts, sector exposure, and catalysts rather than an automatic trade.
Watch out
- STOCK Act disclosures are reported after the transaction and are not a real-time execution feed.
- Capitol Trades states that historical data available on the website is restricted to the past three years.
