Let's say you live in front of the Splunk office, and you see tens of people in suits, a limo with a CISCO sticker, as well as a lot of commotion on the office in front of you. You strongly suspect something is happening, you buy $22k of Splunk calls.

Is that insider trading?

Would I be able to see such a trade when the trader makes them and just copy the trade with a small amount.

Thinking is: „Who the hell would make such a trade if he doesn’t have some information, let’s do the same“
