Stock purchases only: sells, options, bonds and funds without a ticker are left out. Each buy counts from the close on the day it was disclosed, weighted by the middle of its disclosed amount range; members need at least 3 priced buys to be ranked. These are stock-price moves, not the members' own profits, and dividends are ignored.
