  • it is starting to seem like you have no idea what insider trading is. it has nothing to do with “rapid” or any other tempo of trading.

    when you buy a stock for 10$, and the person selling it to you has secret knowledge, that tomorrow the government will issue regulation or w/e and as a consequence, the next day the same stock will have a value of 5$, you were scammed out of 5$ and you will never see them again. it has nothing to do with how long you will then own the stock or how the price will move in the future, or how fast and often you do your trades.

    you would have not paid 10$ if you had the same information the seller has. that is what insider trading is. using privileged information that general public cannot have.

    in any civilized society it is a crime punishable by law.
