I get that the SEC monitors for spikes in trading and they take a look at people who sell a large amount of stock before a major event and stuff like that. Is that really enough to prove them guilty, I thought it needed to be undoubtedly proven to be convicted for it, like they have a phone recording of you receiving the information, even though you sold a load of stocks at exactly the right moment that doesn’t necessarily prove that you had insider information. You could have predicted it and moved accordingly by analyzing the companies and coming to your conclusion.

Sorry to hijack your topic OP but since it’s still kinda active
I was told that insider trading is not a victimless crime. Can someone explain why that is?
