Practice Drills: Tracking and Interpreting Bulk and Block Deals
A practice-first companion to Understanding Insider Trading Regulations and Bulk Deal Data. Instead of more theory, you work the raw data: pull bulk and block deals from the NSE and BSE large deals pages, classify each trade against SEBI's rules, and log it in a Google Sheets tracker. Then you learn to read the counterparty, size the deal against equity, free float and average volume, price it against VWAP and the previous close, and connect it to shareholding pattern and SAST disclosures. You drill the recurring patterns (promoter sales, PE exits, fund accumulation, well-known investor buys and small-cap pump-and-dump setups), measure what happened next with an event window and abnormal returns against the Nifty, and finish by tracking and interpreting a full month of deals on your own.
