Ezana can drop new congressional trade disclosures into your notification bell, focused on the tickers you care about. Alerts are on by default, and you can switch them off at any time from Settings, then Notifications.
How it works
- On weekdays, twice a day, Ezana checks the newest House and Senate trade disclosures.
- Each new trade is matched against your interest profile: the tickers your activity on Ezana shows you follow.
- When a trade matches, you get an in-app notification with the member, the transaction type, and the ticker.
- Each trade is sent to you only once, so you will not see duplicates.
- Open the notification and head to Inside The Capitol for the full details.
Step-by-step
- Click the gear in the navigation bar and open Notifications.
- Under In-app bell, make sure Congressional Trades is switched on.
- Optionally, set Minimum severity to reduce low-priority items.
- Add tickers you care about to a watchlist and research them, so your interest profile reflects them.
Things to know
- Congressional trade alerts arrive in the in-app bell. Email and push delivery for them is not currently available.
- Alerts for a specific politician, party, or chamber, and a minimum trade size filter, are not currently available.
- Alerts follow the public record, so they arrive when a filing is published, which can be weeks after the trade.
Troubleshooting
- No alerts at all? Check that Congressional Trades is on, and that you have been active with some tickers so there is something to match.
- Expected an alert that never came? The trade may not be published yet, or its ticker may not be in your interest profile.
- Too many? Switch the category off or raise the minimum severity.

FAQ
Q: How “real-time” are these alerts?
A: They run twice each weekday against newly published disclosures. They reflect when a filing became public, not when the trade happened.
Q: Can I get an alert for one ticker only?
A: Not as a dedicated rule. Alerts match the tickers in your interest profile, so the symbols you watch and research most are the ones you hear about.
